The car must have been sent up to Sydney on order. Maybe none were available in Sydney at the time.

Ken Hi Ken, could Ganmain motors have brought it up from Melbourne ? they are 5 hours from Melbourne and 5 hours from Sydney Helen Title: Re: 29 September 1958 delivered FC Ute Post by: mcl1959 on January 27, 2018, 07:42:20 PM Yes I suppose so, a unique position of being half way between Melbourne and Sydney probably meant that they could choose either factory

Cheers, John Hi John unfortunately she has spent quite some time on her belly in a paddock - floor and chassis rusted out, exterior hanging panels in remarkably good nick considering so looks like we will just be saving as many parts of her as we can.
