Hey mate, I love how open minded you are to different cars, and if you make a mistake you totally own it! For this one, the pink LJ Torana is absolutely a factory colour- but the bonnet (hood?) was pink also. It was called “Strike Me Pink” and a true 70’s colour! I’d however say that a lot of the cars you featured were not common here either. The Maserati, Jensen and European brands were never sold here. They are just imports, for a minority of enthusiasts. But certainly not Australian. It’s funny to see how much time is given to cars worth $200 compared to cars worth a lot more, without knowing! The orange SS Torana would be worth half a million dollars. And it got 5 seconds lol. And the pink LJ Torana would be worth even more. But that’s the fun thing eh! Great job and love your videos as they are one of the very few that aren’t one of the millions of staged videos on youtube. Love your honesty as it’s what makes you stand out from the fake staged Millenials 👍

you are wrong. Jensen were sold here but not in significant numbers. I remember seeing the Jensen stand at the Melbourne Motor show. Taylorspeed in Adelaide were the importers in the late 60s. not so sure about Maserati but suspect you are right and those that came here were privately imported.

Dave Norman, back in the mid-seventies my dad was a mechanic at a Zupps dealership on the northside of Brisbane. He got to drive trade-ins home so he could give them a test run to see if anything was needing attention. He came home in Statesman Devilles, GTS Monaros, and other cars. But the one that sticks in my memory was a Pink XU1 Bathurst Special. Our neighbour from across the road would often look after his brother's cars. He had an L34 Torana, and a fully-bombed A9/X. It had tunnel rams and twin four-barrel double pumpers...I was a young teenager and always hassled him to take me for a blat around the streets.

Walkinshaw Performance /HSV is pretty much the same thing. Headed by Ryan Walkinshaw. The badge was used for Supercars when they ran a side team to HRT, and kept going with the change of Walkinshaw business to enhancing other brands and re-engineering left hand drive Ram trucks and Camaro and now tricking up VW Amarok. The WP badge just had a different level to the HSV.

It's a UTE if it fits in a standard car parking space otherwise its a truck.

Fun Fact: Originally a Sundowner was an old swagman who was on his last legs, usually mentally ill, the corks on their hats all had names, and after years of solitude they were known to talk to the corks as if they were real people. Usually named after old mates whose sun had gone down. Sad story, but a true one.
