I've got a 253 and I find the fuel efficiency to be reasonable considering its a 50 year old V81972 Holden HQ. It’s was loud, the heater didn’t work, you didn’t need keys to star it, not very fuelefficient but I loved it
I had an auto 180B1981, I'm 18 years old, and my old man bought me a 1973 Datsun 180B (burnt orange). Ah, the freedom. It was gutless, but still served me well for a few years.

They were always collectable from they moment they came out. I can't remember them ever being cheap cars that nobody wanted like other old Aussie cars went through before getting sought after again.1987 VL Calais Turbo in 2000. bought for $8500, a good one is worth about $40k now
loved that car
they were fun cars. good for a bit of dirt roadin..I had an auto 180B
Yeah gutless is a reasonable term, but then my mate has a 120Y and I could beat that up a hill
Those 3L Nissan motors went hard as ****1987 VL Calais Turbo in 2000. bought for $8500, a good one is worth about $40k now

No. Its not an investment.Anyone know if my dad give me a car for free and a few months later I sell it for $3k do I need to declare that on my tax ? Is it a capital gain?
You could get decent power out of the old Holden 6's by putting some work into them but those RB30's would be content with an airbox and exhaust and off they go.Those 3L Nissan motors went hard as duck
I grew up in a VK 202, love the VK but no doubt, that engine was at least half a decade past its used by.You could get decent power out of the old Holden 6's by putting some work into them but those RB30's would be content with an airbox and exhaust and off they go.
Most powerful natural aspirated 6 in the world for a while. Still powerful by modern standards.Scary in the wet
Big tyres and no weight until I put a bag of concrete in the boot
