It was the last one. Just last week.
THE last car has rolled off the production line in Holden’s Elizabeth factory in Adelaide’s northern suburbs.
But I'd love one of these w/AC
What's your dream car?

No more cars being manufactured in all of Australia. That's a very sad thing. Mad Max is shedding a tear even now.

I’ve had a ‘67(very first car) and a ‘69 SS, second car.
My dream car besides being the most expensive car that i would sell first and do other things, has got to be another ‘69, but this time an RS/SS convertable kinda like
this
Maybe not the red houndstooth, but everything else i’d take in my dreams.

I always liked the badged ralley sports the best. Because they were rare compared to SS's and my buddy had one.

That is a 1978/79 Toyota Corona, You want the 2 litre SL version and then you want to get the cylinder heads and manifolds from the GT for a good 100+kW that thing weighs a few hundred kilos.
It was created for the American market, ergo the double headlights, Corona>Cressida>Corrola. I have never driven a car that has more precise feedback. Also, the flywheel has to be lightened.
I once took a brick out of a wall at a tire place, it only left white paint on the side of the car.
Best colour for that model is the metalic brown. It has deep fender wells, so stick some 215s on too.

Also missing my E34, similar colour to this one. Had to sell it this year. In the market for the diesel version at the moment.
You can see how the corona formed my preference for headlight shape.
C51 gearbox, that thing was just indestructible I never had much love for corollas though. My mom had a cresida with a turning circle wider than a goat wagon.
We had a version of the Tercel called the Conquest, those were fun but you had to have the top model called RSI here.
