If the details are correct theres some low k cars in there. A one owner FX ute. Couple other decent looking Holdens too.

1931 Chevy 5 window. Looks like it might be all metal

I like the Camira... I know of a bloke that wanted to upgrade to a later model car back in the 80's, and paid the cash difference to get into one. All he had to trade in was a HK GTS.... Needless to say he has never lived that down

My old man did that on a Camira with a Torana Fastback. To him it was just a 10 year old holden that was costing a lot to keep running.

Not really, how good is that original owner AP6 Valiant with 64000 Miles, or that Falcon XA GS Ute. Love the caption "Good Ready to work Good condition clean condition, virtually rust-free" To be fair, I can't ever remember seeing an XA ute that was rust free ever! Just joking! It would be interesting to see how clean that HK prem is or if it is Chev powered though. Actually just noticed the HQ Stato, last rego 1975! How many miles/ks or on that thing.

Good Find.
