You mention Holden you better mention the name that went with it, Peter Brock

Back when racing was racing......no water cooled race suits here. Don't even bother watching the super cars now days......the Brock, Moffat, Johnston, and other greats of the era drove the super cars.....win on Sunday....Sales on Monday.

Bit disrespectful to Jimmy Richards wasn't it? Jum was every bit as good as Brock and did his part completely in this race, and the narrator even said "one man" at one point in the video referring to Brock. And no, wasn't Brock's greatest Bathurst victory, 1975 would rate higher in a genuinely private team rather than HDT, and 1987 when he finished 3rd with a home grown car against the world's best.

You got to realise Ford pulled out of racing in Australia at the end of 1973. Most drivers were part time amatuers with other jobs on a shoe string budget and built their race cars in their sheds with mostly used parts in their spare time. Just finishing the Bathurst race was a major accomplishment let alone winning the race against a fully funded factory backed competition with the latest and greatest parts, staff and financial backing not to mention better experienced drivers.

Looked Ausome as a road car, especialy with stainless steel drop tank!

Legend

This was the second Monaro to win The HK 327 was the first

I know this truck and the family from Sunshine. Good old days.

no it's gmh greatest car ever built

Any truth to the rumours at the time that the Toranas were running stroker cranks to give them around 335c.i.?

A car is worth what someone is willing to pay, and emotions play a large part as a car can take us back to our youth. I owned a 1968 Ford Falcon and it really was a favourite of mine for sentimental reasons, so simple and i could cimb into the engine bay when i was working on it. Even though it really was a piece of crap i would gladly pay that money if i were rich, memories and taking me back to my youth would be worth that and more. Cheers,

Much prefer this to the current crop of same looking cars, Mustang vs Camaro, Who gives a flying fuck?

Oz muscle cars Right On !!

Does this still work in 2024?

Johnson' Ford pooed its pants big time!!!

Those Fords looked great, but were lumbering giant with poor brakes and weight issues...Holden were an amazing team...

I nearly bought a used SS Torana hatchback 3300 from a Melbourne car yard in 1987. It was $7000. I thought it was too expensive. 🤦

This is the most dominant win in the history of Australian motorsport full stop. The orchestrated 1-2 that ford had in 1977 was a farce in comparison with Bond slowing down for moffat to cross the line first and accepting a 2nd place when he deserved the win.

A9X best ever looking aussie V8 and i’m a ford fan

I was shown by my engine builder he got Yella Terra to make up a set of roller rockers with a smaller hole in them making the oil feed to the heads more restrictive this stops the oil pump sucking the sump dry during high rpm when racing around the track

give me a choice between a Lamborghini and 05 I would take 05 💪 just before I die when I can hear one last noise I hope it's the roar of this great muscle car . man I would die happy 😁💪🙏✝️

That’s Incredibly Awesome! Have A Great Weekend! 🤩❤️✨

This car is amazing! But don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry's and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec system exhaust

Magnificent sounding 350...wow! I was a wide eyed 8yr old when the 350 made it's debut at Sandown,and Spencer Martin somehow managed to avoid a catastrophe at the end of the main straight. The first GTHO looked a tad quicker, and with half reasonable disc brakes on the front. Unlike Holden's solid,smaller disc. Bathurst '69 was a classic, and kept me glued to the screen all race. Wily Harry's HDT won, and the rest is history. Motor racing back then was exciting, unlike the road train,compulsory pit stops, manufactured 'product' that masquerades as racing these days. Thanks for the upload 😁👍 P.S. of course the above is only my opinion.

We were standing on top of our transporter to watch these runs - lol got covered in smoke - also on top of the transporter was a very young Ben Bray - about 2.22 is the best image

Runs nice and quiet for an old Astra. You really got a bargain on this one. I get the feeling that it will clean up nicely and will make a great 'learner' car.

The Real Sedan Car RACERS, not like the demolition derby's of V8 super cars.

Great presentation! Mid Year Corvette. Not C2!

Music and NO MOTORSPORT .....YUK!!!! Turned off in first 30 secs

It's at the National Motor Museum Birdwood South Australia if you want to see it in real life

Great days those. Great drivers, great cars, real competition. These days, the sanitized generic V8 soup cars, which bear no technical connection to road cars, are sooo boring. The rules made for close racing now, make the whole show so artificial. Haven’t watched Bathurst or any other race for many years.

Back in the 70's the Torana's were regarded as one of the best sports cars in the world, not just Australia. Very little could keep up on a race track.

Vy commodore crank no start dfi plate pumps fuel 12v at the pin no spark at coils. No scan tool. Cas changed replacement. New battery. Ohm on coils 2.2. Any idea
