Description: The General Attacks! Based on the 1968 HK Holden Kingswood, this beautifully styled coupe could be powered by the Holden straight six, or as in the GTS version, a Chevrolet 327 cubic inch V8 and four-speed manual transmission. With Ford winning the 1967 Bathurst 500 race with its first Falcon GT model (powered by a Mustang 289 cubic inch V8), Holden hit back by winning the 1968 enduro. And comfortably too: the first four placings were Monaro GTS, Monaro GTS, Monaro GTS, Monaro GTS. This was the first outright Bathurst 500/1000 win by Holden. This white line art drawing is one in a series of rear end views of classic U.S. and Australian classic cars.
Description: At their peak, the Gilbert-Hall Gang was a force to be reckoned with, holding entire towns prisoner when the whim took them. Here we see Mickey Burke, John O'Meally, John Vane, Johnny Gilbert and Ben Hall as they would have looked at the height of the gang's infamy in the early 1860s.
Description: The Commodore SS Group A was heavily modified by Holden's official performance tuner, originally the Holden Dealer Team. The SS Group A existed primarily as a homologation special, created specifically so a racing optimised version of the Commodore could be utilised for Group A touring car motor racing.

Description: Only 400 individually-numbered examples of these Cobra hardtops were produced. The cars were painted Bold Blue with an overlay of Sno White, with Olympic Blue accent stripes separating the two colours. Unusually, the bodyshells were painted blue first, the intended area of blue stripes and sills then masked and the white coat painted over the top. The first 200 Cobras produced were given the 5.8L 351 Cleveland V8, while the other 200 received the 4.9L 302 Cleveland. (text courtesy wikipedia)

Description: The XB series bore minor cosmetic differences to the preceding model, the XA, aimed at giving the car a more muscular stance. First time equipment offerings included standard front disc brakes on all models and an available carpeted interior. Launched in September 1973, the XB GT was to be the last Falcon GT for almost 20 years, until the 25th Anniversary EBII GT in October 1992. The XB GT received a new aggressive front end with a twin nostril bonnet, similar to the style found on the '71-'73 Mach 1 Mustang. The XB was the most popular GT model built by Ford with a total of 2,899 (1,950 sedans and 949 hardtops) sold. (info from Wikipedia)
Description: Visually, the XC Falcon was given a restyle treatment that softened its appearance from its predecessors. The XC had a less aggressive nose which incorporated two round headlights on Falcon models and two rectangular headlights on Fairmont models. On sedan and wagon models, Ford also addressed the vision problems of the XA and XB by utilising redesigned rear doors, which debuted in May 1976 with the ZH series Fairlane, with a lower window line that had the effect of removing the coke bottle styling of the XA and XB. Visibility was further improved by an all-new, lower dashboard and crash pad, and higher front seats. The XC hardtop was the last of the two-door Australian Falcons. (info from Wikipedia)
Description: The 1968 XT model featured a mild facelift, with a divided grille, and inset driving lights for the GT. The GT also replaced the thick lower body stripes of the XR with narrow stripes along the waistline from grille to tail light. The tail lights were still round, but instead of the small round indicator of the XR, the XT model had a long indicator across the light. The 289 cubic inch V-8 engine variant was replaced by a new 302 cu in (4.9 L) unit. (info from Wikipedia)
Description: The 1969 XW Falcon introduced bolder styling which featured raised ridges down each front guard and a 'buttressed' c-pillar (although the rear windscreen was not relocated), which made the cars appear larger than the XR/XT models. The GT variant gained a bigger V8, the 351 cu in (5.8 L) Canadian-made Windsor engine, producing 291 horsepower (217 kW) equipped with dual exhausts and sports air cleaner. The styling of the GT went wilder with the addition of an offset racing-style bonnet scoop, bonnet locks, and blackouts, as well as 'Super Roo' stripes along the full length of the car. GT wheels were now 12-slot steel with flat centre caps over the lug nuts and stainless steel dress rims. (info from Wikipedia)
Description: The SS Group A SV was a race homologation special based on Holden’s VN Commodore SS, which was built at Elizabeth, South Australia but extensively modified by Holden Special Vehicles (HSV). It was powered by a 215 kW (288 hp) 4.9 L HEC 5000i V8 engine, which was mated to a six-speed ZF S6-40 manual transmission. The SS Group A SV existed primarily as a homologation special, created specifically so a racing optimised version of the Commodore could be utilised for Group A touring car motor racing.

Description: HOLDEN TORANA SL/R 5000 Holden’s V8-engined Torana came to be at a time when parts of the world were turning their back on fuel-guzzling cars. Parts of the world excluding Australia anyway. What the SL/R 5000 had on its side was swagger. The SLR was an emblem of the cashed-up bogan; brash and loud with the looks and aerodynamics of a Besser (concrete) block. However, with its guards pumped out to clear fat wheels, an air-dam, rear rear duck-tail, stripes and decals it could at least look like a racing car. (text source: tradeuniquecars.com.au)
