Most of you know I am a "clean freak" with any cars I own, these ones are my first cars and set me firmly on the marque, ISUZU!
The Bellett was a 1966 1/2 model purchased in September 1966, what a car, I was in the Army those days and it travelled very reliably up and down the east coast of Australia while I was in different postings.
The first Florian I purchased in February I think it was in 1969, a beautiful car once you got to understand the handling at speed. With a annoying amount of understeer, I found it best to flick the tail out and give it the gas to successfully corner at speed, I never had a bump or accident in that very nice car.
It was then I made the biggest mistake of my car purchasing a 1971 P510 Datsun, drove and performed well, the body was Australian made and unfortunatley was crap, literally fell apart under me
After my family grew up, I went into a 1980 Holden Gemini, and later to a 1990 Holden Rodeo Space Cab. In 1993 purchasing Doug and Jeans 1969 sedan, now owned by Garry Smith after 16 years under my ownership, very happy again
I would still like a nice example of a sedan as well as my current GT, but the cook says no!!
In between I have owned other Belletts, a 1966 sedan another parts Florian, plus other spare parts cars, but not really worth discussion.
What have you owned and driven??
Dave.
