1976 Holden HJ Kingswood 3.3lt 202 petrol from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
I will never sell this car
Faults:
Brakes locked up - minor problem.
Front seat is tearing a bit.
Back window and door broken - can't open.
Exhaust manifold screws came off.
A bit of rust coming through, but nothing major.
General Comments:
She's as reliable as anything. Never broken down since I've had it.
Real sturdy. Crashed into poles and other cars many times, but barely leaves a dent.
Massive amount of space, can put a double bed in the back.
Beautiful looking beast.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Mate, good point about the HJ, but with live rear axle and leaf spring suspension, it won't be going round corners. Neither will it be braking with the old drum brakes on the back. A much better buy is a XB Falcon, same crappy suspension and poor braking as the HJ but much more power from the 4.9L or the even bigger and better 5.8L.
