This is my HK Peremier. Its a 1968 model. i bought it for $500, put a battery in it and hook the ignition up and it ran like a dream.

The only other thing i've done to it is gave it a wash (Which took 4 hours and still isnt finished)

Its got a bored 192 red motor.
Its got a nice sized cam which sounds good.
A hydrulic clutch conversion.
Its Lowered a little bit

Its pretty straight but its got a bit of rust.
I'm keen on doing it up and putting in a couple of shows but
it'll take a while on a 1st year apprentices wage

Update 24/08/2007 : She has been sitting round the workshop for a while but a lot of thinking has been done and ive deceided to do it properly rip the motor out remove cam put a small one on double barrel carby and nice set of white walls that will start when daylight saving starts and it light after work

Update 19/10/2007 : Ok work has started on her. I ripped the motor out got all the chromoing ready to go and i got the panel beater to do a cashy so im set.

Update 1/1/08 : I pulled the engine apart and found it to be bored out to something like 209. It is a 202 with 040 over bore in a 186 block pretty crazy. I also found that the cam lobes are all worn away explaining the lumpy cam it was a slight miss.

Sorry it took me a while to message you back, i havent been on cardomain in a long time. Very nice HK i give ya 5 stars already mate keep it going. I recon after a while rebuild an injected 5L or a tough 350 chev and slot it in but either way if its a 6 or and 8 youll always turn heads with that car.
