Mini Story or Hook
A classic Gregory’s workshop manual covering the much-loved Holden HX and HZ 6-cylinder range, including sedans, wagons, vans and utilities.
Manual No. 177 was originally published in 1978 and became a long-running reference for owners and home mechanics maintaining these iconic Australian Holdens. This example is the September 1990 Twelfth Reprint of the Second Edition, retaining the great period cover featuring a red Holden sedan.
More than just a practical workshop reference, original Gregory’s manuals have become appealing pieces of Australian motoring memorabilia—particularly for enthusiasts restoring or owning the vehicles they cover.
