Description/extras: VENDOR ADVISES: GENUINE 1986 HDT VL SS Group A, Build #216 - This rare and iconic Brock Commodore was originally purchased in 1986 and has had only two owners since new. Our dad, a lifelong mechanic with over 45 years in the trade, became the second owner after buying it from a gentleman known for purchasing brand-new cars and reselling them shortly after.
At the time of purchase, the vehicle had less than 2,000 km on the odometer and was in near-new condition. Today, it still has under 90,000 km — a true testament to how carefully it has been used and preserved over the decades.
Dad used the car as a family vehicle for a few years before retiring it from regular use and keeping it carefully garaged. From then on, it was only brought out for special occasions — birthdays, weddings, school formals, and other milestone events that meant something special to him and to our family. It wasn’t just a car to us; it was part of our childhood and part of our dad’s identity. Some of our fondest memories are of him washing it in his footy shorts, beer in hand, while listening to Midnight Oil and AC/DC on cassette tapes.
Our father considered this Brock Commodore his most prized possession. A mechanic from the age of 15 until his passing at 60, he took immense pride in caring for it. He often joked that he wanted to be buried in the car because he had looked after it for so long — and with such devotion. The bodywork was polished and maintained regularly, and it was serviced every six months without fail, regardless of how few kilometres it had travelled.
Every inch of this Commodore reflects the attention and care of a knowledgeable and passionate owner, mechanic, and true Commodore enthusiast.
We would love to see this car go to someone who will not only appreciate its history but also continue its story — someone who will drive it regularly, enjoy the unique experience it offers, and create new memories behind the wheel. This Brock Commodore has been a source of pride, joy, and excitement for our dad for nearly 40 years, and we hope its next owner will feel that same connection. It deserves to be out on the road — not just admired, but truly enjoyed.
