I don't have any info on your wagon, but it looks like a great starting point for a project.
Hopefully someone knows something they can add.
Welcome to the forum.
Keep us updated on progress.
Regards
Alex

I had seen one of the local surfers using that wagon around the Torquay spots, maybe 3years ago?
I'll ask him next time I see him.

If you provide the ID plate details and chassis number from the car I can see if it is in my database.

Thanks everyone for the replies. Car was last reg. 2003 JNR577.

ID Plate detail
FC/229-6052M
315-855
253-7699
56-7770
253-7699

Plan to rebuild as it is now. Red motor , 5 speed ( not sure what it's out of ), HR front
end , discs , HR diff ? , on gas , replace the buckets with a bench as we have 4 kids.

It's now in the shed stripped down, scraping 1/2 inch of deadener off the floor with little helpers , all looks
pretty good except sills. Hang on panels were mostly sad , though now have antother car for spares that
aren't too bad.

Will post some more pics as we progress.

Hi FC Cool Wagon,
The numbers show your car as being India Ivory over Corsair Tan but is not on my database, (hopefully Ken's ken has more luck)
I have details of 2 other matching wagons, but both had Adelaide built bodies, whereas yours has a Melbourne built body.
As you mention a donor car, could you provide the ID plate details and chassis number from the that car as well.
Good luck with the rebuild.

I have the car recorded in my database. The record is from 2002 and was owned by Ian Ramsey. He was a member of the Vic club for a short time I believe, and therefore I could probably find contact details for him. No known history before that time without looking up his membership application to see whether he wrote any details on it about the car.

Looks like Ken and Geoff should be swapping details
