The Ute shown above appears to be the hot-rodded <a href="http://www.worldofhsv.com.au/cars/vz/main.asp?link=main/maloor8.html">HSV Maloo R8</a> version, and the one you'll see after the jump is is the regular <a href="http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/modeloverview?modelid=15002">SS Ute</a>. <br /><br />All we can think if is how cool they'd look with El Camino badging. Do the pics mean anything? Nope. There's no plan at all to bring this thing over. Still, the Ute is mighty cool. Imagine the sheer badassedness of it all if both it and its Aussie-market rival, the <a href="http://ford.com.au/range/falconute/models/xr8ute.asp">Ford Falcon Ute</a>, were to come here and rekindle ElCo vs. Ranchero...<br /><br />Thanks for the link, Partick!<br /><br />[Source: LS1GTO.com forums]<a href="http://ls1gto.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1662064&amp;postcount=11"><br /></a><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/27/utes-da-man-more-holdens-in-michigan/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Ute's da man!
