1974 Holden HQ 1 Tonner - Yellow/Black - 38,521km - 253ci V8, Automatic - Custom Street Machine Build
1974 Holden HQ 1 Tonner Single Cab Utility. Rear wheel drive. 253ci V8 (4.1 litre) petrol. Automatic transmission. Indicating 38,521 kilometres. 2 seats.
Description
The HQ 1 Tonner is one of those quintessentially Australian machines that has built a cult following over the decades. Part workhorse, part cruiser, and in this case, part show car. This example has been built with serious visual intent, finished in vivid yellow with a satin black bonnet and twin racing stripes that give it genuine street presence. The body presents well with straight panels and a quality paint finish. Chrome mag-style alloy wheels all round, fender vent trim on the front guards, and a tubular rear protection bar complete the look. This is a 1 Tonner that turns heads.
Inside, the cab has been retrimmed in a two-tone yellow and tan vinyl scheme with matching door cards and bucket-style seating. An aftermarket steering wheel with Holden centre badge sits ahead of the factory dash cluster, while aftermarket oil pressure and water temperature gauges have been mounted below for engine monitoring. There is an aftermarket stereo fitted. The steel tray is solid with genuine timber plank flooring and functional drop-sides, and a towbar is fitted at the rear. Under the bonnet sits the 253ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission and power steering. Vendor advises white smoke and oil burn smell when running.
At this price point, you are getting a custom-built classic ute with real visual impact and a V8 under the bonnet. These HQ 1 Tonners have a loyal following, and examples with this level of custom work and presentation do not come up often. The build plate confirms this as a genuine HQ model, and the odometer is indicating 38,521 kilometres.
