Vanishing icons: the Holden Monaro GTS


The Monaro was made by Holden, the Australian branch of General Motors from 1968 to 1979. It was a rev-head's car of choice. I pass this lovingly restored example on my walk to the station each morning. I especially love the "Monaro Parking Only" sign!

Wikipedia has some more info here, and there's a history of the Monaro, including this model, here.

  1. Sally, this is so interesting and fun to see! People who restore such classic cars have my admiration. I can't even keep up a contemporary one decently!
