HG Monaro GTS 350 "Indy Orange"
DONT PAY RRP $299, OUR PRICE $284, MEMBERS $269Scheduled Production 2000 pieces.
Regarded as the most sophisticated of the earl Monaro models, the HG is today one of the rarest and most sought-after of the Holden coupes. Released on the 26th July 1970, the HG Monaro was the last of the original coupe design concepts. The HG had cleaner lines, with brightwork reduced and some re-designed. It sported different striping which was known as sidewinder strupes which ran along the top edge of the fenders, under the windows and finished just before the rear pillat.
For the HG GTS, the badges now featured black paint fill, it received new blac-out paint on the rocker panels, with the HGT 350 getting bold treatment with new sidewingder stripes and bonnet scoop black outs. GTS350 designations now featured gutsier decals on the fenders and boot lid. The taillights had a cleaner look and the grille was redesigned.
Manual HG GTS 350 retained the suspesion from the HT HTS 350. Other upgrades included thicker, HT GTS 350 style, power front disc brakes, now standard for all V8 and the 6-cylinder Monaro GTS. The HG would be the final model for the generation and the last to use the original body shell.
The HG range produced a total if 155,787 units which inclided 14,437 Monaro GTS coupes. The HG GTS 350 manual, with its very crisp driving feel and Salisbury limited slip differential, stood as the deinitive road car for several Monaro generations.
