    Goat's cruise wagon

    So I bought a wagon a couple years back to be a daily, then life got in the way and it got parked up.

    Anyway, sick of not driving anything old I'm putting it back on the road to be a summer cruiser while the van is being done.

    Here is a shot of it in the driveway getting a battery charge.


    I'll put some more info and details up when she's had a bath.

    It is a HJ,
    The plates say it's jade green which mr jones has from memory.
    It's been resprayed back in the 80s (my guess) with light metal-flake through the paint which sadly has oxidized in a number of places and chipped in others.

    It currently has a 202 and trimatic, however there is a large hole in the trans tunnel with a plate over it for a shifter. I'm wondering if it's an old show car and if anyone has any information on it.

    Cheers,
    Goat

    Paint code is probably 1413 if it was Jade green with cotillon roof. That is the combo my old HJ Kingswood ute was.

    Just so the crazy offers to buy this sweet ride stop rolling in. 3 Weeks ago the wagon found a new home out bush with a new owner that thought the cortina front was tops.

    Cortina headlights grafted into a standard HJ single headlight front. Full 80s custom madness.

    As I said, I've just sold her on. The new bloke thought the front was great, but I also gave him a standard nose as part of the deal if he changes his mine.
