1976 Holden HX Monaro LE - Crimson Red
The Holden HX LE Coupe is a model that blurs the lines between official classification and enthusiast perception. While Holden never officially branded it as a Monaro and it lacked Monaro badges, its striking styling, performance, and features have led many enthusiasts to regard it as a Monaro by association.
As the final coupe of Holden’s first-generation lineup, the HX LE (Limited Edition) combines luxury and sportiness seamlessly. Designed under Leo Pruneau’s direction, it features a distinctive metallic ‘LE’ colour scheme with gold accents, exclusive honeycomb wheels sourced from Pontiac, and a powerful 308-cubic inch V8 engine paired with a Turbo 400 transmission. Inside, it offers a luxurious interior with red velour and plaid seats, walnut trim, and a comprehensive list of standard features including air conditioning, power windows, and a quadraphonic stereo system.
With 257,598 km on the odometer and careful maintenance by a Holden enthusiast, this LE has been well looked after. The vehicle has undergone an external respray over 25 years ago and features a replacement block for the original 308 V8 earlier in its life, along with the original Turbo 400 transmission, Salisbury limited-slip differential, and factory options such as air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes.
The interior remains all original, finished in Burgundy velour with factory cloth inserts and burr walnut-effect trim. It even retains the factory 8-track stereo supplied with the vehicle. The LE is fitted with top-tinted windscreen, heated rear window, analogue clock, electric windows, power radio antenna, and a dual-exit exhaust system—adding to its authentic appeal.
Riding on a set of pristine 14-inch gold-finished honeycomb polycast alloy wheels with chrome lips, this LE exudes classic style. The vehicle also comes with the original owner’s manual and radio manual, further enhancing its collectible value.
The current owner, who has faithfully serviced and maintained the car for over two decades, now offers this remarkable HX LE Monaro for your inspection.
Located in Parramatta,NSW (Ref. 6692), this rare and highly sought-after Australian classic is ready for a new enthusiast.
