Description/extras:
A true icon of Australian motorsport, this 1973 Holden LJ Torana GTR XU-1 is presented in its factory colour scheme of Juniper Metallic (567-15334) with black vinyl trim (1867-50X). Built at Holden’s Brisbane assembly plant (Body No. 21100B, Chassis No. BLJ32586B), this example carries the all-important LJ82911 model code, confirming its status as a genuine XU-1.

Under the bonnet sits Holden’s legendary 202ci inline six-cylinder engine fitted with triple Stromberg CD-175 carburettors, paired to a robust M20 4-speed manual gearbox. Purpose-built for the racetrack, the XU-1 was Holden’s answer to Ford’s Falcon GT-HO at Mount Panorama, cementing its place in history with Peter Brock’s famous 1972 Bathurst win.

With its strong performance pedigree, desirable colour combination and authentic identifiers, this LJ GTR XU-1 represents an exceptional opportunity to secure one of Australia’s most collectible muscle cars.
