Us Aussies sure know how to build an insane four door, as is obvious in this crazy 1974 Holden LH Torana SL currently for sale in Western Australia.

Built to burn rubber at Powerskid events, this LH Torana is a great example of the Aussie four door muscle scene. With a single turbo 412ci Small Block Chevrolet Dart motor, pushing out a massive 1500hp, this thing will basically turn the rear hoops into smoke in the blink of an eye.

Huge figures have been getting thrown around the pits of Powercruise and Summernats for a while now, but 1500hp is still massive. Throw in the fact it’s 46 years old (and still untubbed), and you can guarantee this Torana would be an absolute handful.

If your a complete lunatic, willing to dish out six figures for a car that is going to try and kill you, then you can find this beast on Carsales here for an eye watering $165k.
