My favorite Classic GM! - Page 3

**JoeT** · 04-30-2006, 04:21 AM

Here are my two favourites - The HK & V2 Monaro's.
I have an V2 Monaro CV8, now all I need is an HK Monaro GTS 327.

So Hoden had old cars also, there is so much I do not know about foreign cars. from what I have seen on this site Holden has some awesome cars. That old yellow car there, I'm assuming is the "Monaro GTS 327" because of the "327", it looks like a version of the Nova? What other classics did Holden or anyone make that were foreign versions of american muscle cars?

Not a Nova, but an Australian Muscle Car. The very first version of the mighty Monaro.
Holden has been producing "Holden" badged cars since Nov 1948, and was a body builder and car assembler for many years before that. Holdens merged with GMA (General Motors Australia) in the early 1930's.

Then there's the Torana SLR5000 L34 and A9X. Also the Ford Falcon GT and GTHO.

Can we include 6 cylinder cars? Then how about the Torana GTR XU-1 and the Valiant Charger R/T E49?

GMMediumDutyMQ · 05-05-2006, 03:29 PM

May I ask...

Not that I don't enjoy these vehicles, but since when have Valiants and Falcons been included under "Classic GM" vehicles?

2005 Equinox LS · 05-06-2006, 03:26 AM

Where should I start. The 1977-1990 Impala/Caprice is still my favorite of all. In fact any B-body from this vintage. The 1978-1980 Monte Carlo is a close second. The 1980-1984 Buick Park Avenue and the Olds 98. The 1978-1983 Malibu.

I have 3 favorites that are somewhat diverse.

1. 1962 Buick Special w/ the BOP all-aluminum 3.5L V-8.

2. 1965 Corvair Corsa or Spyder (180hp air-cooled flat 6)

3. 1983 Malibu 9C1 (Last of the RWD full-framed midsize Chevys)

1. 1969 camaro ss
2. 1970 chevelle ss
3. 1958 chevrolet impala
But i also like a bunch of other chevys.

Corrado · 05-09-2006, 10:52 PM

In no particular order, I'd have to narrow it down to a '63 Stingray, '69 Stingray, '70 4-4-2.

Mine has to be the vehicle that gave birth to my love of cars ... the 1977 Pontiac T/A.
