Ok not quite a Holden but Brock imported Russian Ladas and renamed them as his own. One would think after cars he created he would pick a better model to base a creation off.
See Below.

What does a bloke do when he falls from grace with Australia’s own carmaker after a long and fulfilling racing and car building career spanning two decades? Easy. He predelivers Russian Lada pussbuckets, then names a version after himself. Yes folks, sometimes fact is truly stranger than fiction. You’re looking at a Brock Lada. (don’t believe me? Look at the badge on the hatch and the sticker on the engine). What was he thinking?

Mid 1988 Brockie took up residence in Lada HQ in Melbourne, and Australian complied (translated: rebuilt them into closer towards what they should’ve been in the first place) hundreds of the things. Well, a bloke has to make an honest living somehow. The “Brockified” Samara received 13” Delta alloys, side skirts, rear spoiler, single slot Brock grille (squint hard enough and it you can see a slight resemblance with the old VK Group A ‘letterbox’ variety), colour matched bumpers, 4 spoke SAAS leather sports wheel, and the aforementioned hatch badge and engine rocker cover sticker. No one knows (or cares) how many were built, but the ultimate collectible is the Brock Lada Convertible (aka ‘the skip’). Apparently, there’s a couple of dozen out there, I just couldn’t be bothered to go to all that trouble of finding one. Don’t worry Brockie, mate, we’re all allowed to have a bad day.


cheers

rare holdens, gotta love the 4 door panel vans used as ambo's. I think they were a hz or wb. They had a drivers door, front passenger and rear passenger door as well as the back door to the transport area

They were nearly as good as the HT Holden 3 door panel vans the Victorian Railways used .Only 1 door on the drivers side and 2 on the other side

vl F20 sv 4 made
vl F20 turbo 4 made

im pretty sure there was only 2 made of the Vl f20 turbo, there was a stock one featured in street commodores 3 or so years ago, and i remember clearly that the build plate said 1 of 2...


and also i dont think its been mentioned, but the VR GTS Brock, only 3 made, red white and blue, apparently the white one has been burnt, but the blue one is in a collectors garage and the red one is a standard stroked 355 with a blower on it...i think the 3 were a promo vehicles for mobile and brock...
