Description
The HG Monaro GTS 350 is the top-specification variant of Holden's definitive Australian coupe, and in Florentine Gold it is a genuinely rare and striking car. The GTS 350 badge on the front guard and rear panel confirms the highest performance trim level of the HG series, built in March 1970 as confirmed by the compliance plate bearing date code C/70. The body identification tag shows factory paint code 567, which is Florentine Gold, consistent with what you see across the panels in strong sunlight.
The exterior presents in very good to excellent condition. Florentine Gold paint holds deep gloss across all panels with straight body lines and consistent shut lines. The front end wears GTS badging in the grille, a 350 badge on the front guard, and the chrome front bumper is bright and well-preserved. The fastback roofline carries the characteristic HG Monaro proportions well, and the rear wears a GTS 350 badge on the black gloss panel insert between the tail lights. A period-style louvre over the rear glass is fitted. The car rides on polished billet American Racing-style alloys shod with Pirelli P600 redline tyres in 235/60 R15. Inside, the GTS-spec cabin features black quilted vinyl bucket seats in excellent condition, original Holden woodgrain dash trim, GTS door card badging, and a B&M floor shifter. An aftermarket VDO stereo is fitted under the dash, with the original Holden radio fascia retained. The engine bay houses the custodian-built 350ci V8 with Bow Tie heads, roller rockers, a 750 double-pump carburettor, extractors, and MSD ignition, all built by TC Performance Engines. The Turbo 350 automatic was built by Transteer, as was the Ford 9-inch diff. The bay presents cleanly with no obvious oil leaks.
HG Monaro GTS 350 coupes in desirable colours with well-built running gear have been achieving $100,000 - $120,000+ at Australian auctions, with top examples exceeding that. The factory paint code confirmation, original documentation package (original Holden owner's manual, GMH Guardian Maintenance booklet, service history), and the custodian's mechanical investment make this a compelling proposition for the collector or enthusiast who wants a properly set-up example of one of Australia's most iconic muscle cars.
