This 1967 Holden HR Sedan has been through an extensive rebuild with a bunch of tasteful modifications. The car is built to a high level and is packed with features. When it rolled off the production line in 1967, the car started life as a ‘Special’ model finished in Lurline Blue with Dover and Calais blue interior. The entire car has been stripped back to nothing and completely rebuilt and transformed into what you see here today.

The body of the car was stripped back for a full body restoration. The car received any necessary repairs including full door skins before being professionally repainted in Gloss Black by TSX Auto Styling on the Gold Coast. The decision was made to keep the car true to its original lines with no major body modifications and the paint has been finished to a high standard. The car was extensively rust proofed including inside, outside, under the floors, guards, inside doors and boot. The chrome work on the car was also all either refinished or replaced at the same time and the car has been fitted with premier badging. To complete the look on the outside the car sits on a set of period 15” Performance ‘Jelly Bean’ wheels.

Inside the car has been treated to a full retrim in red leather by Nerang Motor trimmers in August of 2020. The trim includes custom stitching to the front bucket seats, rear bench and door trims. The floor is covered with all new high quality red carpets including the inside the boot. There is a premier style centre console that houses the automatic quick shifter. There is an aftermarket Pioneer stereo system and the dash features aftermarket Autometer classic gauges. The car is fitted with a full air conditioning system including an electric air con compressor behind the rear seat however it should be noted that it isn’t currently blowing cold.

Under the bonnet lives a cranky little 202ci 6cyl engine which has been fully rebuilt and upgraded. The engine build features a Yella Terra head, Crow cam, electronic ignition, 30 thou over size high comp pistons, high flow oil pump, and triple Weber 45 carbs. Exhaust gases escape through Geni extractors into a custom exhaust. The cooling system has been upgraded with twin thermos fans. The engine is paired to a Trimatic automatic transmission which was rebuilt by Gold Coast Automatics with a 2800 rpm stall converter and quick shifter. The suspension is rebuilt standard items with lowered springs and the brakes are four-wheel discs with a Wilwood dual master cylinder. The engine bay is neatly detailed with billet hood hinges.

The car was completed late 2020 and has only travelled approximately 2,900 miles since. This would have to be one of the nicest mild custom HR Holden’s we have seen with a bunch of tasteful upgrades throughout. The car is offered for sale at NO RESERVE and will sell to the highest bidder come end of the auction.
