1973 Holden HQ hq review from Australia and New Zealand
"Hard"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The diff in the sixes blow way to easy.
The axles snap way to easy.
General comments?
The car is as tough as nails, but the diff and axles are just to weak with a conversion to a ford 9 inch diff with billet axles you will never blow a diff again.
