Among the high-quality field of cars set to go under the hammer is a couple of genuine Holden Torana SL/R 5000s, a GTR XU-1, a former Street Machine feature car and one of the best VK SS Brock Blue Meanie Commodores in the country. Other goodies include a VN HSV Group A and a VL Group A.

Holden Torana XU1 GTRThis 1972 Holden LJ Torana GTR XU-1 is a genuine matching numbers Bathurst model with around 55,000 miles on the clock. The car is unmodified and has been signed by Aussie motorsport legends Harry ‘Fox’ Firth & Leo Geoghegan from the Holden Dealer Team that developed the XU-1 with Holden.

Holden Torana SLR5000 YellowThis is one of three 1974 Holden Torana SL/R 5000s in the auction this weekend. It’s an original Absinth Yellow car with 83,000kms on the clock.

Ford XB Falcon Coupe 1This XB Falcon Hardtop is another toughie up for auction this Saturday. It’s packing a mildly worked 351 Cleveland with a C4 auto, and a nine-inch rear end sitting on Centreline Convo Pro wheels.
