Default My Aussie 'Ute'

G'day guys

Here is a couple pics of my Holden ute. Its a 1994 model with a basic 5litre V8 with 4 speed auto. Car is stock besides black rims, tint, hard cover and a few other things. No future plans for it, my other toy is my 1995 Firebird Formula, some of you might of seen it here when I posted it up a few months back. This ute is very average compared with other Holden and Ford utes going around. Hope you enjoy the pics, any questions please ask.

G'day Mate.

The car errr.........Ute looks good man. I like the blacked out rims.

thanks for all the comments guys, much appreciated!
these things stock come with around 240hp or so, this ute would have around 260 as there is a few engine mods etc, but she gets up and goes for a standard old car. The new utes here is Oz come with either the old 5.7litre in the standard model, or a new ls2 6.0 litre, which definitly packs a punch, like around 400hp standard, straight off the showroom floor. I dont have any 1/4 mile times sorry.
Ive included some pics of some Holden utes from some car shows ive been to reciently. These new utes are a totally different shape compared with mine, and come with the 5.7litre LS1. If you guys want any more pics or info let us know. Cheers

Oh, yeah, I still don't know why GM doesn't jump on those and bring them to the states. I mean they already stole the Monaro and called it a GTO.

I see that the styling really hasn't changed much from your 1994 model to the current one.

Very cool post and a big LS1Tech welcome to ya.
