Good car, but thirsty on gas
The ignition switch failed, and the starter motor fell out on the road.
Occasionally the gear selectors would jam (easily fixed with some quick finger work)
I bought this car in 1987 for $3500 NZ, just as the Japanese imports were starting to flood into the country. I sold it two years later for $800.00.

Sex on wheels
Interior needs has worn badly and could do with a clean up.
Radiator was mint until someone cracked the top while putting Premier nosecone on. Was from a Falcon and fitted in perfectly.
Brakes have been replaced and I still get pulled up when it's time for a Warranty of Fitness.
Can be heavy to drive when the car is full, but no lowering springs needed.
Parts are getting more hard to find.
Excellent for cruising looking for boys.
Staunch and sturdy. I'm not worried if I have an accident cause I know the other car will come off worse.
I am restoring it as best I can and loving every minute of it.

Darn good family car
The ignition system (key end) had a short in it. The indicator lever became the horn:)
The timing is a little bit out.
Seats are badly worn.
A very economical car to run, very simple to work on.
The suspension is really soft and the car sinks ten inches when even a light person gets in it.
The front bench seats are dodgy. Whenever I go turn right the passenger hits the door!

A real man's car, the king of the road!
Nothing yet! It's mint!
Holden continue to do it at Bathurst, and continue to do it for me on the road! Not like those guttless Fords!
