If you were a Holden Dealer selling HX's in 1976 and then the HZ came along, you would say exactly the same thing.
AND, by the way, you can thank current Holden MD, Mr Peter Hannenberger for making Holdens handle.
He was Mr RTS back in 77.

I heard Norm Beechys Sports Sedan GTS 350 had a 7L(427 cubic inch) engine and was quite something on track.
Be a great model to put beside the Bathurst 24 hour winning Monaro.

It was in my recollection the FIRST Aussie built car with an Aussie born driver that achieved this
the next Aussie car 1973 (Ford Falcon) had an non Aussie born driver in it( Moffat)
P.S. like me, born oversees.
the cars before were Jaguars and a Ford cortina and the next two years after were Camaro's
The Ford of Moffat is a VERY sought after model !!

Now that the Monaro mould is up and running ,Is there any intention to make this in my eyes Unique racecar as a Model?
I do understand that it was not a Bathurst winner and only a Australian championship winner

It's not the first time Brock has advertised for Holden's Monaro. I think it was the HQ 2 Door + 4 Door was his first run.

Quotations like: "It will make you feel like motoring all over again" and "All geared up for excitement".
