EOI – Submit offers by Midday, September 30th 2026. The following story gives you a clear background into the existence of this vehicle: A remarkably preserved HSV VL Commodore SS Group A “Walkinshaw”. Chassis #082 with delivery mileage, and accompanied by an extensive and well-documented history from new. Original specifications show a 4.9 Litre fuel injected V8 engine, producing 180Kw and 380nm of power and torque, delivered to the rear wheels via a 5 speed manual gearbox. Performance figures suggested at the time of release, 0-100kph in 6.5 secs and a top speed near 230kph. -The History: Chassis 082 left the Holden factory on 14 April 1988 to HSV to be transformed into a SV Group A SS, and completed (and stamped) July 11th, 1988. This particular chassis was allocated to Charlie McCarron’s Canowindra Motors, a well-established country Holden and HSV dealership in rural NSW. This dealership later became a museum, before sadly closing in 2016. Chassis 082 remained amongst a collection of cars at Canowindra Motors unwrapped, before being discovered by its eventual first owner. The current owner worked for Bridgestone throughout the 1980s and 1990s, and specifically wanted a Walkinshaw, recognising its significance from the outset. Through these connections, he became aware of this particular Walkinshaw sitting unsold at Canowindra Motors. A handwritten note recording his name, the dealership and their telephone number has been retained. He travelled from South Australia to NSW with a trailer to personally collect the car and bring it home, where it has been ever since -Exceptional Documentation: more

1985 Holden Brock VK SS Group A Sedan – Manual – Recreation
$163,900*
1985
180,844 km

1985 HOLDEN BROCK VK SS GROUP A SEDAN – MANUAL – RECREATION This example was the subject of a special build by HDT Special Vehicles in 2010 to create a tribute VK Group A SS as a major prize for the Unique Car Magazine during a competition in 2010 and 2011. The final article was published in issue # 320 of Unique Cars detailing the build process under the guidance of HDT General Manager at the time, Darren Gillis. Here are a previous owner’s words on how it all came into his possession. “I followed the build of ‘The Peter Brock Tribute’ as documented in all the issues of ‘Unique Cars Magazine’. I also entered to win it a few times. I obviously wasn’t lucky enough to win it, but I did get the opportunity to buy it when the Lucky Winner decided to put it up for sale 6 months later in 2012. I’d wanted a VK Group A from the time I first laid eyes on one at The Royal Adelaide Car Show in the mid 1980’s. I considered a few genuine Group A’s at the time but I chose to buy this actual car knowing it was fully documented, restored and built by HDT for Unique Cars Magazine. It’s arguably just as good if not better than the original 500 built in 1985. Also the words of Peter Champion who is the current owner of HDT. Basically they built another one 25 years later but ‘The Peter Brock Tribute’. It was a one owner car prior to its transformation in 2010 and has the same running gear as the original Blue Group A’s. ” The car is based on a HDT Improved Police-Spec VK Berlina V8. Presenting in Formula Blue with pale blue fabric interior trim. A comprehensive service was completed in Port Pire in July 2022. The engine is a 4.9 Litre 16V V8 producing 196Kw and 418Nm of power and torque, delivered to the rear wheels via a 4 speed manual gearbox. Performance figures suggest 0-100kph in 6.25 secs and a top speed near 225kph. We hold copies of the Unique Car magazine which gives in much greater detail, the back ground to this vehicle. We also have invoices and service history, completed by Morpowa Auto & Dyno of Modbury North SA which included a rebuild of the carburettor and replacing the harmonic balancer tuned on the dyno. A more recent but minor service was completed by AC Delco on the 27th of August 2026 just 500kms ago. This vehicle has had a recent Ceramic coating of the paintwork plus the fitting of a GPS Tracker,  which can be transferred to the new owner. If you are after a VK Group A SS and are concerned about the price they can fetch, here is a beautifully prepared example by HDT and at a much more reasonable price. The current SA plates VK HDT are available if the vehicle is sold to another South Australian resident. Currently on Historic registration in SA, this is not transferable, however the car would be eligible for similar schemes in other jurisdictions, equating to minimal on road costs. Available to inspect on our state of the art showroom floor in Adelaide. We can arrange transport door to door Australia wide. more
