Classic HR Holden Cooling System Repair

We don’t see too many of these anymore, so it was a real pleasure to welcome this beautiful HR Holden into the workshop. The owner brought it in due to overheating issues, especially a concern with warmer weather approaching.

After inspection, we found the cooling system needed attention. We carried out the following work:

  • Fitted a new radiator
  • Replaced the thermostat
  • Installed new radiator hoses
  • Performed a full cooling system flush

Once completed, the overheating issue was resolved and the cooling system was performing as it should. While the vehicle was with us, we also carried out a minor tune and some electrical repairs to ensure everything was running smoothly.

With these repairs completed, this classic HR Holden is now ready to be enjoyed again — even through the summer heat. It’s always great to help keep iconic Aussie cars on the road for their owners to enjoy.

Whether you're looking to breathe new life into your vehicle with a complete restoration, require routine maintenance to keep it running smoothly, or need expert advice on parts and preservation, we've got you covered.
