    Yes. They were both L30 M41 HQ Kingswood utes. Both 1972 Dandenong build. The E'wet is well documented but the other car isn't. I have GMH letters for both cars.

    I also have a colour photo of the E'wet at the motor show it was first shown. Looks great in colour.

    Its Ewe't, e'wet. A play on the word ewe (female sheep). Utes originally being a farmers vehicle.
    Actually, I dont think there should be an apostrophe in the word at all as its not shortened from a longer word anyway.

    Correct! I did say I was at a wedding drinking, should learn not to rely upon memory when alcohol affected!

    haha shouldn't you have been looking at the wedding party instead of surfing the web on you're phone.. :-)

    Interesting the stickers were blue.... why did they make the Sandy ones only black 'n white.
