TOP RIDES
OF THE MONTH
Gabrielle Holland is a member of the New South Wales Torana Club and husband Mike, is the treasurer. They’re also members of the Canberra Torana Club.
The LX Torana hatchback was bought from a (now deceased) club mate of Mike’s, as a rolling shell over 13 years ago and was finished for Gabrielle’s 70th birthday.
So, as a septuagenarian lady, the car had to have a few comfort fittings: auto, air-con, power windows and steer, etc. A good sound and seat comfort also featured on the wish list!
The car is designed for easy driving on club outings and smart enough to take to car shows where it has already scored some tinware.
The idea was to restore the body of an LX Hatchback and upgrade its driveline, suspension, steering and brakes to end up with a modern fettled cruiser, in an iconic body. Park it next to a new Porsche and see where the crowd looks!
