This 1974 Holden HJ Premier sedan has been through a full bare metal restoration into a one-off custom cruiser. The car was built by the previous owner over a 10 year period and comes to us as part of a large private collection.

To begin the build, the car was completely stripped down to be rebuilt from the ground up. The shell of the car received any necessary repairs before being completely professionally repainted in Electric Orange metallic. The paintwork is of a high standard and has a metallic flip in the light. The paintwork extends into the engine bay and covers the blower fan, brake booster, radiator support and inner guards. The chrome on the outside of the car has all been either refinished or replaced. The look externally is completed with a set of 18” Show Wheels Streeter mag wheels.

Inside the car has also been completely refinished in Buck skin Tan. The car features the usual premier appointments with bucket seats and centre console. The carpets have all been redone including matching boot mat. Front and centre is a SAAS aftermarket steering wheel with SAAS tacho and shift light mounted to the column. In the centre console is a B&M quick shifter for the auto trans. Tunes are provided by an aftermarket Phillips stereo head unit. Creature comforts include power steering and power brakes.

Under the bonnet lives a 308ci Holden V8 engine that was fully rebuilt by Chev’s Performance Centre in August of 2016. The engine build features a Rollmaster timing chain set, Crane 286 Cam, hydraulic lifters, Aeroflow super sump, Edelbrock intake and Holley Performance 670 cfm carburettor. The engine was dyno’d at 318.3hp before being placed into the car. The engine bay is neatly detailed with chrome rocker covers and air cleaner. The engine is paired to a Turbo 400 automatic transmission with 3800 rpm stall converter. Exhaust gasses are expelled through HPC Coated Pacemaker extractors into a custom exhaust with dump pipes just after the diff. Cooling is handled by a new aluminium radiator with twin thermo fans. The brakes are factory power assisted discs up front with factory drums in the rear. The suspension is rebuilt standard items with lowered springs.

This HJ Holden Premier has been extensively restored with a bunch of great upgrades. Since completion the car has only travelled 1,355 miles. The sale includes original handbook, receipts for the engine build and dyno sheet results.
