Issue 46 of Xtreme Holdens is due on sale any day now and boasts our photo shoot and feature story on Willem Fercher’s insane LJ Holden Torana inside and on the cover. Powered by an LS7 and featuring a tonne of flawless fabrication work, this machine is just as at home on the quarter mile as it is on the twisty stuff.

Willem’s LJ is a genuine 9sec street car, with a best ET of 9.96sec @ 133mph recorded so far. Making 447rwkW, this LJ is perhaps one of the most impressive Toranas we’ve ever seen. it’s certainly the best we’ve ever had the pleasure to photograph and we urge you to check out the extensive 9-page feature spread on the car in Xtreme Holdens when it goes on sale this month.

As always, we’ve got six FREE desktop wallpaper images of the car for you over on our Flickr page. Just CLICK HERE or on the thumbnails below to view and download those. Photography fans will find our lighting information and EXIF data there, too.

A selection of six images from a photo shoot and feature story Hosking Industries did on Chris Milburn’s sweet LJ Holden Torana sedan for Xtreme Holdens magazine in Australia. The feature appears in the latest issue of the magazine, number 38, on sale now.

As you can see from the images, Chris’ LJ runs a nice Holden six cylinder engine with triples and sounds angry thanks to an aggressive cam profile. The entire car has been rebuilt from the ground up and you can read all about it in Xtreme Holdens.

A selection of five images from a photo shoot we did on Ray Tyler’s 1972 Holden LJ Torana coupe that has been built as a circuit racer. It appeared in issue 5 of Holden Horsepower magazine in July 2011.

Powered by a hot six-cylinder Holden engine, the car boasts a full roll cage, race seats and plenty of camber. The car had not been raced or dyno tested at the time of publication, but the AVGAS-fed beast was due to hit the track soon. I remember it being quite an angry, cammy and temperamental machine on the day of the shoot.

All shots were lit with Canon Speedlite flashes and there is strobist information on the individual shots for anyone interested.
