Nice car and a great starter.

Less of the electronics to plague you. A mate of mine prefers them to the newer stuff, he has a few spare cars for parts.

One thing with the older cars is replacing suspension bits and pieces as unless it's been well maintained they can be a bit clunky.

This site has some great pics and specs of Holdens through the ages.
