On the latest episode of The Retro Rides Podcast, Cam and Rich are joined by Sam Princi, founder of Machines and Machiatos, who drops by with his impressive HQ Monaro Coupe, a rare numbers-matching 308 four-speed.

They also look ahead to the All Aussie Auto Show, a new and unique event coming to Sydney on March 23 with some cars you may not know were created here.

As always, the team also discusses the latest auction news, along with the latest website content such as our deep-dive into a pioneering Australian-made car, the Australian Six, and the chance to buy a legendary land speed record car.
