That last pic looks like it would have hurt.
Looks like a 48 Chev and jailbar pick up on the bottom in the third pic.

Hi Alex,

Craig posted these for me (thanks!), there is a fair variety of vehicles there, English, American, and Holdens from FC to HJ, and the odd Ford too!! I've been getting a few useful bits and pieces off them!! The bent FC was a sight to see, I thought as a joke I'd word an ad up to sell it, it would read something like:

Special features of custom FC...
tight turning circle
suitable for northern and southern hemispheres
accomodates back seat drivers
driver can tell if brake lights are working
front and rear mounted engine
only one licence plate required
fits in garden shed next to lawnmower
see where you are going and where you've been
front and rear wipers (operate off same switch)

Anyone think of anymore comments?? :)

Cheers

Peter

Pinifarina designed Austin Freeway. With badge engineering, Wolsley (various models), Riley (various), Vanden Plas (various). Some UK market only. The 6 cyl version in your picures is an Australia only version.
