HSV VL SS Group A SV

The Holden Special Vehicles VL SS Group A SV, aka. Walky, was a limited production homologation racecar produced by Holden's performance vehicles department, HSV in Clayton, Victoria. It was HSV's debut model after Holden cut ties with the proceeding Holden Dealership Team (HDT), and has become an icon of Australian automotive manufacturing. Based on the VL series Holden Commodore, the Commodore was shipped to HSV having only the Panorama Silver Paintwork and lack of some standard equipment to determine their future, HSV then removed any further pieces and built the car up to spec by hand, this process continued to be used by HSV until its closure in 2020, 33 years later. There were initially 500 Group As slated for production, but due to demand, was extended by 250 to a total of 750, that 250 vehicle extension proved to be a bad idea, after news of the upcoming VN Commodore-based Group A was leaked.
