Title: Classy EH Post by: Geoff_K on September 30, 2004, 08:47:45 PM In the current 'Classic Holden Calender 2004' the September Car is a Kalgoolie Gold EH with TAS rego and 67000 miles on the clock.
Yesterday I spotted this car in Annandale (NSW) with NSW rego, and 74000 miles on the clock. The new owner is Rosso (of 'Merrick & Rosso', TV and Radio personalities) who said he also owns a P76. So these guys are cool after all! Whats the chance of the November Car, Des Gillett's Frankston Cream FE Utility getting to Sydney too?

At about 5 foot nothing, she looked a bit small in the car. My kids, when they were little, used to refer to grandma's car as the "driverless car" 'cos from the back you couldn't see her in it.
Title: Re: Classy EH Post by: FCwagon on October 01, 2004, 08:13:56 PM I reckon M&R chose a P76 because they needed something that would get people to point and laugh at them - they're unfunny otherwise ::) (only my opinion tho').
