OzHemi’s Ute On eBay
By Rob
Editor-in-Chief
If you’ve been following the Retro Rides Camaro build you may have clicked through to check out Jeff’s other ride, an Aussie Valiant Ute. Well, Jeff decided to put the Ute on eBay, where it got noticed by the guys at Jalopnik, who are pitting it against a hacked-up Demon in one of their daily polls. Funny stuff.

They are similar to the US A bodies (’68/9 Dart for example) same control arms, torsion bar length,etc. The front clip and inner structure is longer though by about 3.5″ to make room for the Hemi-6 which was longer then anything we had here in the States.

Looks like a Dodge Dart-based pickup.

Ditto on the Holden comment. I have always (and always will) like my Mopars (Aussie ones especially with all the Charger’s I’ve had) but the little Torana is hard to beat as well.
Thanks, and glad everyone likes the ute!

The steering wheel IS on the correct side, same side my car’s steering wheel is on.

But it’s never seen Snow ! All though I suppose you could carry a batch of penguins in the bed if need be.
