Hello - here is a few photos of my collection:
Red ute was my second car I owned (first was a Gemini Station wagon - hence the interest in Isuzu's)
I still have it today and will probably never sell it.

Re: Redbacks Toys
Hey Josh,
Unfortunately the HR has been sold, as well as the VP sedan as well. I ran out of room
I enjoyed working on them both and miss them in the stable. Truthfully registering them all was a nightmare at about $750-$800 each a year.

In NSW now we pay $46 per year, CTP incuded, and we can drive for 60 days for any purpose on top of club runs. Bargain!
Only problem is I only have 4 cars on it at the minute, but more to come! Next is Dobby the Elf.

Re: Redbacks Toys
Hey Farmer,
Yes we have Club Rego up here - Stinky is registered that way - It costs $90 a year and same 60 days with a log book you must fill out prior to each drive.
I had the HR on Club Rego as well at the end of me owning it. I bought it for $1000, took the motor out and cleaned up the engine bay with a bit of paint, drove it for 3-4 years then sold it for $3500.
It was a great car to drive.
