I''m sure most here would have seen the Torana Hatchback promo/add thats been floating about for a while.

 

But how many noticed that the Hatch Hinge Covers that screw to the back of the roof are missing? At about the 42sec mark.

 

I noticed this the first time I saw the promo some time ago, but the video popped up again and thought I'd share it.

 

It makes me wonder if the very early Hatches did not have this part fitted?

 

Anyone able to confirm or deny?

Might have used a pre-production car for the ad. Car not 100% complete?

Love these old ads, this is why i bought a 4 door, hatchbacks are more of a campervan design,  i will buy one when i retire and travel around Australia, not really a muscle car, LOL
