I can remember going for a ride in one of these when I was just a wee tacker.
-
Looks like a Nova on the front and a Chevelle on the back.
Nice!

Nice!
And in the first picture the body kinda looks like a Maverick.

Would that make it a Novelle?
-
Or howbout a Chrysler Valiant Charger?
-
Got some neat looking cars over there.

I really like the Monaro very sharp looking car.
Did Holden have it's own styling studio or was that done by GM in the states?
-
All done in Oz.
-
Or a ford falcon

Much better looking Falcons than we had here.

They did a really nice job.

I agree that looks like a Falcon. The US Falcons were decent cars but perhaps would have been more accurately called Ford Pigeons.

Torino-ish. Some good-looking cars down there. :great:
-
Or a Holden Torana GTR XU1.
-
That bears a resemblance to the Opel Kadette (which was a pretty cool little car). Opel was for a long time German GM.
-
They had a 202 ci six with triple su carbs.
The Charger had a 4.3 L six with triple Webbers.
Now Jaffer , don`t get all misty at the mention of su carbies.
-
I will try and restrain myself. But I do wish some of those Holdens had been exported to the US market.
-
Terrible photo I know, it is a screen capture off a video. Falcon 500 station wagon cruising passed me last week while I was auditing temporary traffic management on one of my sites.
-
Looks to me like a 71 Torino wagon with Pinto tail lights.the styling on these cars is real interesting.
-
Holden Torana A9X
-
That bears a strong resemblance to a Vega.
-
Did they just take our cars and squint and yep we have a new design lol

Better front view of a Falcon 500.
-
Later model - XY Falcon
-
Back to Holdens - more Toranas
-
Ford GTHO Phase 111 Falcon

I watch a New Zealand based police show, Brokenwood Murder Mysterys, in it the chief investigator drives a 1971 Holden Kingswood 4 dr sedan. Which I find to be very Chevy Nova-ish.

That is a very well written show. I particularly like the Russian pathologist. And because NZ is a small place, I know the guy who is the on set safety officer for the last three series. Some of the rural scenes are shot on his farm.

Fern Sutherland is not hard to look at either.
The wife and I are addicted to English murder mysteries, started out with Midsommer Murders and other shows, which led to Canadian based Murdoch Mysteries, the Australian series Phryne Fisher and New Zealand based Brokenwood
-
I'm guessing these are very hard/ impossible to find here in the states?

Muddy, I would say only a few ever made it to the US.
GNAP, I agree with you about Fern. I quite like the Phryne Fisher series as well. Another one to look out for is the Canadian series The Frankie Drake Mysteries, another group of women detectives set in the 1920s.

We watch it......

Chrysler Centura

I don't think that one that made it to NZ. Reading the Wikipedia article it sounds like a bit of a bitsa.
-
Leyland P76
-
Holden Torana GTR XUI at full song.
-
Monaro doing the same thing.
-
Ford Falcon
-
Chrysler Charger.
