The very first HSV Holden Special Vehicle Wagon series ever made1989 - correct model name 1989 VN HSV LE WAGON - only 80 units ever assembled by HSV - all individually numbered on firewall identification plates and dash tag assembly.
Please do not confuse this vehicle with HSV enhancement range variants like SV100, SV110, SV120, SV 130, SV140, SV150, SV200, SV105, SV125 OR SV 135 that were purchased by original owners from dealer and then sent to HSV with a choice of upgrades the owner was able to select from a list.
This is a super rare Survivor HSV individually numbered limited Edition build offered for sale – 1 of 80 ever build in wagon form.
One owner vehicle for last 34 years - all original owners details listed on delivery certificate enclosed in owners service manual.
Build number / other private detailed information will be provided to genuine purchaser.
All Id tags in place from day one build.
Vehicle sold new 14th Aug 1990 As per owners books from Gerald Slaven Holden ACT with 16km noted on the odometer.
Vehicle has been retained in same dry inland area from original date of purchase.
Its presents as it left its factory assembly line back in 1989.
Still retaining original number plate from first registration ( currently on historic registration ) but will be included in sale as part of vehicle history from day one.
All owners manual / red dealer deliver folder/wallet present.
Vehicle has lived its life in a very dry inland area which has contributed to its 100% rust free body. Vehicle has always been kept under cover from day one of purchase - factory fire thorn red original paint with small imperfections like small stone chips and some small dents you would associate with a vehicle that has been used / driven for the last 34 yrs but sparingly over the last 10 years. Rear hatch has been repainted on the external side only due to fate ( internal jamb area all original ).
Interior also presents in original condition - original roof lining in excellence order – lifting slightly at rear - factory unique SV Trim, Bolstered seats, momo Italian steering wheel with hsv embedded horn cover, hsv embossed gauge panel, power windows/ mirrors/ central locking. There is a tare in material drivers seat trim and dash pad does have cracking under dash Matt.
Engine bay in lovely factory build condition - HSV cold air intake air box, headers all intact - also running the factory duel exhaust system. Still has the factory leads date coded 1989 and all other factory decals / tags present.
Recent updates include injector service $643, factory distributer rebuild from Performance Ignition Services VIC $1500, new battery $200, New Bosch ignition coil, New genuine Bosch ignition module ( not a rebuild - genuine new in the box from GM at a cost of $1500 ) – all fluids, filters changed with genuine GM Holden items to retain originality.
Very strong engine for a factory 180kw unit - sound it displaces is marvellous - very tuff sounding engine you would only get with the injected 304 iron lion - gives quite a few motorist a scare at the lights / very healthy engine..
