1976 Holden Torana
Not all Holden Toranas were muscle cars. In fact, the most basic models were little more than common passenger cars. However, if you opted for the SS package, with its unique welded wheel wells, you got a pretty swift car. Being rather small, the V8s they managed to cram into the engine department provided solid acceleration. Built for the harsh conditions in Australia, the Torana SS featured sound handling as well. Unfortunately, the model lineup was killed off by 1980 and Holden as a brand has been replaced by GM.
