Rare and highly collectable 1977 LX Torana SL/R 5000 A9X in Opaline Blue with Slate Grey trim with log books and only 144,894 Kilometres from new! One of only 3 A9X sedans painted in Opaline Blue. For sale from our Sydney Showroom.

A9X build number 229 of the 405 produced is one of the much desired 2nd production run featuring the wider flares and 3:08 diff. Of the 405 A9Xs built, Holden released 305 sedans and 100 Hatchbacks of which only 3 Opaline Blue sedans and one A9X Hatchback were built.

Originally sold through Suttons Motors, Petersham, Sydney the A9X is supplied with full ownership history with the original log books confirming all the important numbers of the Torana. The Torana has been an A9X Club of Australia member over the last three ownerships. 

This is an accident free example of the A9X. The Torana was repainted in 2002 on the outside and in the engine bay and the original matching numbers engine was rebuilt in 2023 with receipts. The engine still features the fully rebuilt Rochester 4bbl carburettor, factory exhaust manifolds and 21/2" dual exhaust system. The M21 4 speed manual gearbox and Salisbury diff are also original and in excellent condition.

This is a very correct and original car with all engine bay stickers and the two piece front spoiler and brake cooling ducts still in place.

The interior is all original in Slate Grey with original carpets, gauges, dash, dealer fitted Concord radio and steering wheel. The A9X is supplied with the original owners log book, manuals, original GMH ventilation and engine starting interior paper hangers. There is also a receipt folder, some older photos, ownership history and a 1980 NSW rego sticker.  

The A9X is fitted with widened A9X rims with Yokahama 352s 245/50R14 tyres on the front and 265/50x14s on the rear. There is an original A9X spare and boot matt in the boot. All the chrome and glass is original and in excellent condition. 

This is definitely the pinnacle of Holden performance, representing the birth of HDT and later HSV. It is a car solidly etched into our motor racing history. A rich history of Brock and Firth, Richards, Harvey, Grice, Morris, Perkins ... the names synonymous with victory spelt simply in the name - Torana.

These cars are legendary on and off the race track and a sure fire investment in solid gold Holden muscle.

Located in our Sydney Showroom for your inspection. (Ref. 6752)

The Buyer understands there is no warranty or guarantee offered by either the Seller or AMCS.

If upon inspection the Buyer is not satisfied with the car for any reason and does not wish to proceed with the purchase the owner is advised and any personal details are deleted from AMCS records.
