Description

1988 Holden Special Vehicles Commodore VL SS Group A (Walkinshaw) - ONLY 40,700klms - 3 Owners ONLY - Unrestored/Totally Original Untouched

We are very pleased to offer to you this great opportunity in securing one of the most sought after \'\'HSV\'\' Commodores on the current market. An original 1988 VL Group A SS #202/750 built with ONLY 40,700klms from new and has had ONLY 3 owners from new. The 1st custodian had for 12 months then the last 2 owners each over 15yrs ownership and left in a total original state, untouched and like new throughout. A stunning example that was delivered new on July 1988 by Warrnambool Holden and has all her original books/manuals and still has her original number plates as noted in delivery book DRM-911. Totally period correct in everyway both exterior and interior features in tact and comes complete with the "sparkle" still showing on carpets and door cards only helps the sale for authenticity and to maintain her value for future keeping. Built by Walkinshaw HSV to compete in Bathurst they built 500 for homologation for racing and a further 250 from demand. This is of the 1st 250 built so deemed more desirable in the HSV collectors world and with such low klms from new truly a great investment example considering one sold last year for $1m. Finished in the signature colour of Panorama Silver with her period correct Grey Velour Tweed sports cabin all in perfect order. Her original radio and switch gear all in great order with all carpets and door cards in like new condition with the bolsters on front seats still firm and upright.

This absolute iconic Aussie muscle cars from the 80\'s was all about \'\'race on Sunday and sell on Monday\'\' and the Walkinshaw was exactly that with HSV winning Bathurst in 1990 against all odds with Ford Sierra\'s and Nissan\'s Godzilla to fight against Win Percy & Alan Grice beat them all off and won. This was iconic and really cemented the VL Walkinshaw into legendary status hence their high desirability and increasing values yearly for original complete unmolested examples like this stunning Walkie\'\'. Her original twin throttle bodies and her factory 5.0L V8 pushrod engine mated her to matching T-5 5 speed manual gearbox all shifts perfectly and drives raw and analogue a sad experience not seen today. Her 5.0L EFI V8 pushing out at the time a healthy 180KW/380NM and still feels quiet punchy even today when compared to modern day cars. The interior is like being in a \'\'time warp\'\' and reminiscence of the 80\'s and the legend of Peter Brock, HDT days a time we will never ever witness again.

The VL \'\'Walkie\'\' Group A SS has now become one of the most sought after and highly collectable Aussie muscle cars that was ever built and with such demand for pure original untouched examples like this never fading this fantastic #442 is one to acquire and keep in your collection. Totally completely original inside and no additions with her original MOMO Italian Sports Steering Wheel and Blaupunkt radio cassette all in perfect order.
