A rare Holden Commodore SS HDT Group A first owned by Australian racing legend Peter Brock is heading to auction again, almost three years after it fetched more than $1 million after a bidding war. Listed by Collecting Cars, this 1985 Holden Commodore VK started life as an SS but was soon sent to the Holden Dealer Team’s Port Melbourne workshop to have its Group A modifications made.

As with all VK HDT Group As, this example is painted in Formula Blue – hence its Blue Meanie nickname – and has its iconic HDT logo headlights, Brock signature front quarter panels, commemorative Bathurst win sticker and racing-inspired aero wheels, front air dam and rear spoiler. The car is powered by a 4.9-litre Holden V8 engine which produced a claimed 196kW when it was new, driving the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
