Description1970 Chevrolet SS Coupe (24682543468).jpg
The HG Holden was built from July 1970-July 1971.
The 2nd and final facelift on the HK-T-G shape. The new Australian made Trimatic was introduced on the HG.
Like the HT, the HG sedan was available in four models;
the base Belmont, then Kingswood, the luxury Premier and the longer body Brougham. Also available was a wagon, utility and panel van.
And the Monaro 2 door coupe; available in base, sporty GTS and GTS 350.
HT Monaros were assembled in South Africa from imported parts by General Motors South Africa (GMSA)
Later the HG Monaro was assembled and sold in South Africa badged as the Chevrolet SS. GMSA had made a decision to market most of its products as Chevrolets. The Chevrolet SS had revised front styling unique to that model, incorporating four headlights and large turn indicators in the front edge of the fenders above the bumper. The Holden Monaro and Chevrolet SS models were both available with Holden 308 and the Chevrolet 350 engines.
South African sales totalled 1828 Monaros and 1182 SS models
