Recently I took my English Cousin for a drive in the Country, and this is what I found......at the Holden Dealership in Canowindra 1 hour from here.....the owner of the dealership had kept one of each model..some he has since sold, and the rest are there still....managed to grab a tailgate with window prob from a ute conversion:cry: there are a lot of pictures but i think they will all be interesting.....:D

























I picked up some genuine bumpers as well:lol:

There's a local Holden dealer that's done the same near here ( Northern Vic ) . One of each model ..

Check out this collection for sale

i am sure your english cousin thought it was great you spending 4 hours looking all of these old "Vauxalls"

haha

Yes Adamperth....She did recognise the Jag that was up the back......she writes truck manuals for Mercedes and Fiat so she was half interested.....I didn't take all those pics that time...I had a look, for 15mins, then asked the guy could I come back with Rodney....which we did and spent three hours there.....It is however hard to explain my love for Sandmans to the poms, at least I had one to show her.....Glad my parents brought me here or I would be into all those British cars.....:lol:

so you have met charlie mccarron.... did he still have the FX #46 in his possession... was for sale for $1.2mill a few years ago.....

did you get to his house? many more treasures there but he wants way too much money... and sadly he will probably pass and his kids will sell it all for peanuts..... charlie must be what 80 by now
