Hi guys, I was trawling another forum and spotted these...behind the Toyota. If I squint and use my imagination the first one looks like a 2-door, but I'm sure it's not.

I don't know the location myself, but the thread mentioned it was in a Cooma wrecking yard, thats all. So you might have to do some Google Maps research, or ask around. Here's the thread:

Highly recommend you all jump on this forum, if you haven't already, its a real treasure trove of information and enthusiasts.

Cheers,
Duane

Yes, I heard he charges to look :lol:

Good Idea, I reckon, very entreprenurial. Sounds like a fun half a day out to me, I spent about 4-5 hours at Heize's yard over here, which is a similar size. At least we know he's got some Belletts, for an extreme emergency. ;)

I've been meaning to have a look each time we visit the Broth at Bemboka - we drive through Cooma. Gary Carter looked a few years ago & said the desirable bits were already gone, but it might be worth the 20 bucks just to see all that vintage tin. There is a lot. A big lot. Hmmm.......
Thanks Duane,
Matt.

I went ther in the early 70s. Granparents worked on Snowy scheme. It has not changed much. Although it was rumoured that lots of stuff has been bulldozed into gullys and filled over. Saw that in an article in custom rodder in late 70s.
