Wow!

Over here Holdens verus fords war has been ongoing for decades I myself prefer the ford but this has twisted the argument and will make many fanboys on both sides scratch their heads

UNITED: The Folden - a 1970s HQ Holden Kingswood sedan that’s had a 1969 Ford Mustang front end grafted on.

They combined the Ford Mustang badge with the GM Holden badge:

Mind you no-one outside Australia or NZ would even know what a Holden is.

Ford fans sit in the front whilst Holden fans sit in the rear!

I've heard the name before but suddenly I want one.
if it's that easy to drop in a V-8 there's always room for it in my heart.

they should have done a bench front seat with the steering wheel in the center.

cut any of the left driver or right driver argument off at the pass

You guys would be familiar with the Pontiac GTO?

This is what they orginially looked like:

Holden made them for export to the US until recently.
