Classic Holdens, tough Ford Falcons, hot rods and American muscle cars filled Armadale Auto Parts for another fantastic Caffeine and Gasoline event in Perth, Western Australia.

Aussie Garage headed along to check out the impressive turnout, chat with passionate owners and explore some interesting projects inside the Armadale Auto Parts workshop.

From a survivor Holden Torana to beautifully restored EH wagons and a 700-plus horsepower Chevrolet C10, there was plenty to see!

Survivor Holden Torana – 27 Years Off the Road

One of the highlights was Scott’s incredible Holden Torana, which spent 27 years unregistered and in pieces before finally returning to the road.

Still wearing its original 1983 acrylic paint, the Torana retains its old-school character while packing some serious upgrades.

Under the bonnet sits a heads-and-cam Holden 304 V8, backed by a T5 five-speed manual gearbox and Ford nine-inch differential.

It’s a fantastic example of a classic survivor brought back to life without losing its history.

Two Incredible EH Holden Wagons

We also caught up with Keith, who spent three years restoring his beautiful EH Holden wagon at home, working weekends and evenings to complete the project.

Then there was Jack’s personalised EH wagon, featuring an EJ Holden front end, Holden 202 six-cylinder engine and two-speed Powerglide automatic.

Jack also shared the entertaining story behind his distinctive ‘NOT POPS’ number plates.

Both wagons showcase the dedication and individuality that make Australia’s classic-car community so special.

700HP Chevrolet C10 and Phil’s XC Falcon Panel Van

For horsepower enthusiasts, a custom Chevrolet C10 pickup producing more than 700 horsepower certainly grabbed attention.

Ford fans were also treated to Phil’s impressive XC Falcon panel van, featuring upgraded lighting from Bangin’ Headlights and a beautifully finished interior by Vision Trim Shop.

With classic Falcons, Holden Monaros, American cruisers and hot rods throughout the event, there was something for everyone.

Unusual Customs and Workshop Surprises

Caffeine and Gasoline wasn’t just about traditional muscle cars.

We discovered an unusual Volkswagen Kombi motorhome conversion, the imposing GRIM 56 Cadillac hearse and several Mad Max-inspired custom vehicles.

Inside the Armadale Auto Parts workshop, we also spotted a DeLorean that appeared to feature a supercharged Buick V6 conversion.

It’s always interesting to see what projects are hiding behind workshop doors!
