Australian Muscle Car Sales proudly presents for sale a genuine 1973 Holden LJ Torana GTR XU-1.

Aussie Muscle Car fans will remember the 1972 rain-soaked Hardie Ferodo 500 won by 27 year old Peter Brock driving a Holden Dealer Team prepared Torana LJ XU-1, the first of Brock's record nine victories in which Brock finished a lap ahead of Queensland racer John French driving a XY Falcon GT-HO Phase III. And this was despite Brock being penalised one minute at his last pit stop for starting his car while the HDT crew were still re-fuelling. A further lap behind was the Valiant Charger E49 of Doug Chivas. The Hardie-Ferodo 500 created two legends on that day. Brock and the Torana XU-1.

For sale is a genuine beautifully restored April 1973 Holden LJ GTR XU-1 Torana spec’d in factory Sunburst Metallic with Black vinyl trim. This Torana XU-1 is presented in totally correct factory specification.
