75Torana's 1975 Holden Torana


This is my 1975 LH TORANA
It has been a three (and still counting) year project.

I originally brought a 74 which had a 9"diff, roll cage, cross member with mounts for a 350 Chev & heaps of other good bits, but the body was too far gone.

A mate had a '75 he was using for parts, the body was still good so I talked him into selling it to me. He said ok but wanted to take the parts he needed first! I agreed but when I finally got it there wasn't much left. I swapped all the parts from the '74 to the '75...

I still had parts to find (like an engine!!) so I found another Torana, it was a 78 and called a Sunbird for some reason. It had all the other parts I needed including a Holden 253 engine. So once again I began striping and swapping.

All this was done on the side of the road as I didn't have parking space for more than 1 car. It was even painted outside.

The paint looks good in the pics but due to sitting outside in the weather it has faded and has signs of cancer. Its since been moved to a mates garage, & ready for round two!!
