some more pics from the depths of my computer, spotted this for sale lots of years ago in the glamorous suburb of wingfield. I did try at the time to contact the yard owner and went past several times to check on it but never got anywhere with it. Possibly Dave spotted this same car at the same place ?

interesting side note my father in law is fairly sure that his Dad owned this car at some stage as he remembers they painted the wheels red, why I dont know!

Dave DEFINITELY spotted this car, coz Dave took those photos!

Taken May 2005...

I took a photo of the businesses phone number too... "Ant's Towing" (no relation to Ant aka Antus who runs the back end of the Forum here!). I never rang the number; I had a new mortgage and not enough space. Actually I might have found the space; it was probably all about the dollars.

Dammit! That is the ONLY flat-front I've ever seen!!! EVER! Oh wait, except the one at Dudley Heintze's wrecking yard.... that also has a flat back... hence why it's there.

Cheers,

Dave
