Just some things I noticed but its still all good in my books.
Thats a 12-port motor....
Battery in the boot?
Whats is on the side of the block, 202 or 3.3?
Does it have an earth from the engine to the body somewhere as I notice the hole near the front of the engine usually has one from there to the radiator bolt as these need good earth plus it may be only running 9volt to the coil which will make foul plugs simple stuff to fix though?
You have interior bonnet pull too
The pedals look widely spaced.
Non standard guages in the dash


You have an interesting car mate and well worth the money and well worth returning to a near natural state, Congrats on your purchase :)

Welcome to the Forum Dion

Notice it has the GTR accelerator linkage bracket

Whens the Gong going over

Maybe it was a LC and they made it into a LJ??????

Also the radio Hole dont look right can you fit a Radio in there? Maybe still LC Stuff there

Shame you dont have the tags for it to see what it was does it have a Vin number?

Very interesting stuff in your car. Welcome to the forum and I'm sure that others would agree...

Thanks for posting the pictures on your car.

I look forward to learning more about your car. I have a friend that goes to Bali often. I may have to go over there myself and check out the holden scene..

Looks more like a 2 door sedan conversion than a hatch.

If it's 1974 it's not a hatch, surely...

@studricho
I will update everything about my car, especially when restoration is in progress.
If you want to see Holden in Indonesia, come to Jakarta, of course I'll accompany you as long as you in Indonesia :)
And of course you have to teach me about this beast. :D
