2009 HDT VE Commodore Group A SS Retro - Build No 050 ... (SOLD)

On October 9, 2009 Bev Brock unveiled the new-generation HDT 'Blue Meanie' -- inspired by Peter Brock's famous 1985 HDT VK Group A Commodore at the Bathurst 1,000 at Mount Panorama, Bathurst. And just like that a new legend was born. For sale is a super low mileage example of the VE-VK Retro SS Group A Commodore for sale from our Sydney Showroom.

The new Blue Meanie, the third in a line-up of modern HDT heritage vehicles modified by Peter Champion's HDT organisation is based on the 6 Litre V8 VE Commodore SS or SSV and modified with the inspiration of the original Brock road cars. The 'Blue Meanie' is painted in the exact same Formula Blue as the 1985 original and therefore wears the same nickname. HDT has even reproduced a modern version of the single-slot grille, race-car style rear wing and turbine-style wheels with centre Aero wheel caps. And as with the original Brock VK Group A's, customers could choose between alloy or white finished Aero wheels.

Developed as an alternative to HSV's GTS and Clubsport offerings, the HDT VE-VK Retro Commodore offers car enthusiasts an unique package inspired by Brock and built by the HDT organisation as a modern interpretation of a Brock SS Group A Commodore. At the heart of the HDT Group A is the 6.0-litre V8 modified by HDT with a special cam, high-performance exhaust and an engine ECU tune that, combined, produces a claimed 350kW of power. In addition, a colour coded two piece engine cover and Billet engine bay caps are fitted.

Like the original VK Group A, Peter Champion's HDT organisation specifies the latest Bilstein Coil over suspension providing for unrivalled ride and handling.

And on the inside, HDT has re-trimmed the interior with HDT logos embroidered into the leather seats with interior carbon fibre highlights and HDT floor mats. In addition, each car features an unique build plaque on the glove box, in this case 50 of 250.

Build No: 50 was ordered on the day of the launch of the VE VK Retro and was originally sold through Bathurst Motors and sent straight to HDT for modification. This differentiates this special vehicle from the more common HDT Improved examples. According to the HDT records, this is one of only 29 VE-VK SS Group A Commodores built. And with only 39,373 Kilometres on the clock, this stunning 6 speed manual Retro VE-VK Brock Commodore comes with all HDT documentation, HDT Authenticity Certificate, log books and owners manuals, two sets of keys and full service history. Build No. 50 originally wore the NSW plates VEVKGA as seen in the photos kindly supplied to us by the original owner.

HDT has always had the reputation of building excitement into their vehicles and this stunning Group A is no exception.

For sale from our Sydney Showroom. (Ref. 6301)
