Used 1979 Holden Kingswood for Sale near Freeport, NY

Overall performance of the car is quite good , the little 253 V8 is no race motor but has good get up and go , isnt too thirsty with good highway economy due to a 2.78 diff ratio . It makes the right sounds but cos its a V8 . Braking and handling are above average and I have spent a fair bit of time overhauling these components . The body and paint is great condition due to repaint . The interior is my favourite feature with full retrim , half cage , converted manual to floor shift , GTS steering wheel and many other subtle upgrades . Car is great fun to drive

Mine was a ute, and it was always reliable. Never had any major problems with it, and what I did have was easily fixable on the driveway. Accelerated and handled like you would expect a '79 ute to accelerate and handle, though the braking was surprisingly good. Iconic truck, loved it!!

Only way it could be better is if it only had two doors

This car is absolutely aesome, 2.85L engine that can easily be interchanged with new holden/chev/gm engines, supercharger/turbo unit could be added, the engine bay is pretty large. Bit heavy and sluggish and expensive 2 run but hey- hella worth it:D

Performance - acceleration, braking, handling Build Quality - has it needed repairs? squeaks/rattles Appearance - both interior and exterior styling Cost of Ownership - gas mileage, maintenance Fun Factor - is this car fun to drive? ation love the car it was my dad's when he past away he gave it to me
