The restored Hurricane was on display at the MotorClassica in Melbourne in October 2012. Power came from the yet to be released Australian designed and built 253 V8 and 4 speed. An innovation for the times was a rear camera and dash mounted monitor with no rear veiw mirrors.

The car has been beautifully restored and is obviously in good hands.

I remember seeing the Hurricane on display at the Holden Dealer in Bendigo in 1969 and thought it was the ugliest car I had ever seen and seeing it again in 2012, I still reckon it's ugly but I really do appreciate it for what it is, a fine example of Australian engineering.

Cheers
