1969 Holden HT Monaro GTS
1969 Holden HT Monaro GTS two-door coupe finished in Yellow with black vinyl roof. Rear-wheel drive, powered by a 308ci (5.0-litre) V8 petrol engine paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. Odometer indicating 74,393 miles. South African-built example, imported to Australia, with service receipts on file.
Description / Overview:
This HT Monaro GTS is one of Holden's most recognisable late-1960s performance coupes and presents as a largely original, honest example with genuine appeal for the serious Holden collector. The body is finished in yellow with the correct black vinyl roof and GTS twin-stripe livery, and the overall panel presentation is straight and consistent. Recent mechanical work includes a full fuel system flush, a professionally rebuilt and retuned Rochester four-barrel carburettor, radiator service and cooling system flush, and four new BF Goodrich radial tyres including a new spare.
Importantly, this car is a South African-assembled example, built by General Motors South African (Pty) Ltd, Port Elizabeth, as confirmed by the compliance plate in the vehicle. The chassis number 80837A0S458082 carries the South African build prefix. Buyers should be aware this is not an Australian-delivered vehicle, and value expectations should be calibrated accordingly. South African-built HT Monaros are genuine period vehicles with the same drivetrain and body specifications but command different collector values compared to GMH Australian-assembled examples. Australian import documentation and compliance approval should be verified by the buyer prior to bidding.
The interior presents in good condition with correct black GTS bucket seats showing well-preserved pleating, an uncracked dash pad, the GTS three-spoke steering wheel, and a full factory gauge cluster including the correct GTS tacho. The engine bay is tidy and presents the 308ci V8 with correct orange rocker covers and GMH 308 air cleaner decal. The car is described as second-owner and has supporting receipts for the recent work completed. Inspection recommended.
