Now we see why the Shah was seen as a Western puppet. The gov't could've chosen anything over this. But no... Iran got this and GM's RWD X-body.

I need to redownload Life On Mars.

Maymar is convinced M.C. Escher engineered his car

Notice how 70's Australian voice-over dudes almost sound American?

There is only one KNOWN drivable, original HUSTLER left. I am lucky enough to have one of these cars, and it will be many years till I completely restore it.

The comment above about the H120 (holbay) engines having 45DCOE weber carbs is incorrect...they haD 40dcoe CARBS...None of these Holbay engines were made availble in Australia...I imported one from the UK for my Sceptre MARK 3. (which was also privately imported to Australia.

Yes, the HUSTLER had 2 150 cds stromberg carbs, not like Cowan's Car with the pair of 40DCOE webers.

the colour schemes of the Hustler are a match of the VG Valiant PACER with the same grille, steering wheel and headlights included.

Dont ya just gotta love the bongo intro!!!! what a fantastic find this ad is. Bloody brilliant!!!!

It was allegedly engineered to take the 289 Windsor from the Tiger, but that was shitcanned when Chrysler took over. That's a PCH project.

]]> <![CDATA[Nobody Outhustles The 1970 Hillman Hunter Hustler!]]> In Europe, the Hillman Hunter was available with a 120-horse version of the 1725cc motor. It was modified by Holbay, which had a lot of experience with the Chrysler Europe (nee Rootes Group) engine, and it had dual Weber 45DCOEs rather than the Stromberg CD150s this car seems to use. That's the one that won the London-Sydney rally. I'm pretty sure it'd outhustle the Hustler. I want one.
