Toranas to choose in SEVEN82MOTORS’ August auction
SEVEN82MOTORS’ current auction - which runs from 9 August to 19 August – has seven Holden Toranas to choose from. There is also a wide array of classic Aussie and American muscle, restomods, show cars, modern muscle and hot rods amongst the 72 total consignments on offer.
Like classic Monaros and GT Falcons, Toranas continue to be hot property in the collectable car market, particularly the performance variants – GTR, SL/R, L34 and A9X. All are represented in this auction and what increases the desirability is that there are genuine examples, as well as tributes and replicas, available.
Online bidding for the SEVEN82MOTORS August auction opened on Friday, 9 August and runs through to Monday, 19 August. The close of bidding - from 7:00PM on the 19th - will be live streamed.
