Aussie cars are the most iconic cars in the entire world... PERIOD
@bobdobric6787
@bobdobric6787 Год назад
Australian cars are great no doubt but when it comes to being iconic not a chance the muscle car history started in America . They had Ford , Chevrolet, pontiac , Oldsmobile, chrysler, buick, dodge , a list of cars going back to the 1950s . In Australia there are only 3 major brands that had muscle cars under them . And then the motors in those muscle cars in America are still used to this day in drag cars in Australia so American cars come on top all day long

@@oldskool1977 for us Aussie cars are iconic because we idolised them and grew up around them , for the the average Yank they would feel the same about there own . We got our inspiration from American muscle prior to the mid 60s all we had was 4 cylinders and 6s from England

Proud Aussie giving you a big go well! I has a genuine HQ GTS 350 Coupe when I was young. NEVER gonna sell I said. Met my dream girl, car was sold for a house deposit. Only consolation, was house increased in value 10 fold over 15 years, Monaro was still worth $100k, easy... but house made it a LOT easier to swallow. Not so great for next guy though... he traded it for a near new Camry at the time... I bumped into him later... car was worth possibly $2500 on a good day... That Monaro would have been topping $120k at that point. Well optioned, factory, burnt orange 350. God...I still love that car... Rob, Tasmania

Big block Monaro coupes are to us Aussies what big block Chevelles are to Yanks, even though we only had small blocks from the factory, the big blocks slot straight in This HQ is an Aussie icon. My HQ coupe has a LS6 454, T400 and 9 inch. ( and a sneaky 125 shot ) HQs are the best coupe Australians ever made
@FlattardiansSuck
@FlattardiansSuck Год назад
Bull crap. Ford coupes make Holdens eat dirt. My 3 XA coupes against your HQ ANY TIME. To have a good Holden, you remove the Holden engine, transmission, diff, and put in a Chev, a Ford top loader or Chev transmission, and a Ford 9inch diff. All you end up with is a terrible chassis and body that needs wheel tubs. Where's the Holden? 308's were grenades. Get a grip on reality mate. Lol.

@harrywalker968 To this day I've never heard a better v8 engine on Conrod Straight than a Perkins Holden v8 7500. There was a BMW v8 at the 24hr that came close, but it broke about 6hrs in. As for the 9 inch diff, I'd happily have one in any car of mine. Be it Ford, Chrysler or Holden, they've all parked in my shed at one point

🇦🇺 Many Australians and Americans don't know the difference between a Muscle-Car and a 4-Door Sports Sedan. Just as Chrysler Corp. reintroduced the Charger badge. Selecting the 4-Doors to make huge profits by attracting government fleet buying. Otherwise it would have had retro styling like the true Muscle-cars: Challenger, Camaro & Mustang. 🏁

My Kingswood was reliable too, also had rust in floor pan like Flintstones; poured rain water through heating vents; could be started with a flat head screwdriver; front doors seized shut so you had to get in from rear (we called it the anti-theft system). And no matter what, it not once broke down on the side of the road.
