01: Purchased from
Adelaide 10 years
ago, the HQ coupe
is a 350, four-speed
GTS that Andrew has
never bothered to get
registered in WA. Andrew
did have a four-door in
the collection, but it was
an auto, so he moved
that one on – he knows
real muscle cars have
three pedals. It’ll get
some love soon so it can
hit the streets


02: Pretty much the


Holy Grail of Torana
ID tags, the GMP&A
(General Motors Parts
& Accessories) code
in place of the body
number means it was
a special bodyshell
built specifically
for competition

03: There is a
smattering of Brock-era
Commodores amongst
Andrew’s Holden-heavy
collection, as well as
a couple of late-model
offerings from HSV

04: This red Torana A9X
hatch is the last one
ever built. It still wears
the original paint, but it
copped a bit of a tidy-up
when Andrew first got
hold of it

05: The E38 is about to
be sent off to a Chrysler
restoration expert so
it can have its final
assembly completed.
After 15 years of
collecting, Andrew is
finally getting the car he
first went looking for
