Title: Rusty Holdens
Post by: Shayne on October 09, 2007, 11:17:54 AM
I thought I would start a new thread for this type of 'as found' Holden.  These pics aren't mine, but most have come from flickr.com

First one 'On the way to Hill End, NSW'

Small amount of rust in driver's side front guard. At least this one has a spare wheel!

I don't consider this rust - just the complexion of a fifty year old!    :D

Great pics Thommo.  Never heard of Dudley, but he has some nice old cars...

I hope you can get amongst them in the next couple of years before they completely turn to dust (or turn into Daewoos or Kias via scrap metal recycling).

Once again, thanks for the pics.  I have a mate who lives near Nuriootpa who told me about some old Holdens in a paddock.  I reckon you've found the same paddock :o

I have been through these cars many times and no offence Jeff,but Dudley is not a big fan of having photos of his yard posted on the net as he has had a lot of theft from the yard and a lot of people just treating it like a "You pull it" or should that be "You wreck it".Having said that,there have been photos posted on this site in a topic started several years ago which is how it came up in conversation with him and needless to say,he was not impressed.I guess that was inevitable because as you can see,it is an awesome sight.Cheers,Jamie.

Fair point Jamie.
The cat was out of the bag a long time ago about this place.
Dudley is a great ol bloke, & i didnt mean any harm.
If you dont no where it is, you would have a bit of trouble finding it.
I didnt think 'near nurioopta' gave away to many clues.
Even Shayne from the east coast has heard of it!
But point taken Jamie.

Cheers
