Thanks very much for your help Bazza and for the welcome from Jono and Dane.
Dane, I don't know that my car has any Bathurst mods as it's a July '73 car, just prior to the last 150. Should it have any?
Regards,
Jim.

Do you know when your car was completed looks like it was late in July going by the vin and engine number.

GTR completed 16/5/73 sold by dealer 547 during 6/73. No engine number listed, but the bulk of GTRs around that time were in the JL333xxx range. The Body ID tag should show Body Number 277397-B and Paint Code 15347.

GTR completed Adelaide 7/3/70 and sold by dealer 659 during 4/70. There is no engine number recorded. Sebring Orange with black vinyl trim.
The VIN, Chassis Number and Body Number are consistent datewise.

This could have been one of about 10 XU-1s completed early April '73. The Chassis Number and Body Number are consistent with that build date. The colour is Tangerine with black vinyl.
Do you have a VIN or an engine number?
Cheers

You sound like you're the man I want to speak to. A mate of mine has the following info for an LC (supposed GTR):
Inner Gaurd: LC25895A
VIN: 82911CL171568
Body No: 3011-A
Trim: 1813-40 V
Paint: 568-12571
Can you confirm if this was an LC GTR which we suspect it is? Also, is there anyway to check which engine number came out of the car if it was a GTR? We have an engine, but just don't know for sure if it's the original. It has GTR exhaust manifolds so could be genuine. Your thoughts?
Any help is great! Thanks mate.

That VIN comes up as a GTR completed in Adelaide on 11/3/71 and sold by dealer 055 (somewhere in SA) during 2/71 (more than likely a typo). From the other info that you have provided, the car is Lina Mint with black vinyl trim. The original engine number is listed as 2600S32228. The Chassis Number and Body Number are consistent with the build date. If the car has all of the usual GTR identifiers, it should be good but an examination by an expert is advisable.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Bazza

Hey Bazza! I've found out that the engine number is 161R179182. What do you think this is from?
Ant
Hi
I believe that is a high compression 161 originally from a HR Holden.

Got a question on the master list - is there any way to tell the diff between a GTR and an xu1 if the engine number's not listed? The engine group code identifiers on the first page are not that easy to understand.
Cheers
Hi James
The METSBAC/BETSBAC column should show the following:
LC series with standard options
GTR = 34203C0
XU1 = 37403E0
LJ series with standard options
GTR = 76203C0
XU1 = 77403E0
Cheers
