1968 Holden HK Kingswood Sedan
1968 Holden HK Kingswood four-door sedan finished in Dorado Blue with white roof two-tone. Rear-wheel drive, powered by a 173ci inline-six petrol engine paired with a 3-speed column-shift manual transmission. Odometer instrument reads 23,478 miles; vendor declares total distance as approximately 234,784 kilometres based on owner records (odometer has rolled over on the original 5-digit instrument). Chassis No: HK15446A. Beverley, SA.
Description / Overview:
A solid, presentable example of the iconic HK Kingswood sedan that wears a full respray in Dorado Blue with white roof two-tone and a retrimmed interior. The paint presents well with good gloss and consistent colour across all panels. The interior has been retrimmed in matching blue/teal vinyl covering the bench seats, door trims, and headliner, all of which are in good condition. The 173ci red-motor six-cylinder engine bay is tidy and functional with no obvious major leaks visible. Three-pedal column-shift manual transmission is confirmed.
A note on the odometer: this car is fitted with the original 5-digit MPH instrument cluster, which reads 23,478 miles. At the vendor-declared total of 234,784 kilometres (approximately 145,854 miles) the odometer would have rolled over once. Buyers should treat the km figure as a vendor declaration, not a readable instrument reading. This is standard for pre-metric HK-era Holdens and is noted here for full transparency.
Compliance plate confirms the vehicle as an Australian-built HK Kingswood with Chassis No HK15446A and Engine No P0937021. Note: the compliance plate engine number (P0937021) differs from the number stated in the listing (0D198316). Buyers should verify the engine number directly from the compliance plate prior to bidding. The car rides on aftermarket mesh-style alloy wheels in matching blue; original steel rims with period hubcaps are not present. Inspection at Beverley SA recommended.
