Just a little update on this wagon,
It was bought new in Chiltern, NE Vic. It only changed hands once and this is where the story starts...A farmer bought it for $50.00 about 12 years ago and while driving it home, it broke down(or so he thought!) After trying everything he finally stripped the heads off it to see if he could fix it(no luck) so he towed it home and took what parts off it for his FJ Ute...They then discoverd it had just run out of petrol...the old dodgy gauge!!!!.
This farmer also has what I'm told is a yellow FC(taxi?) in his shed for 20 years! I am working on it.......
The car has since been stored in his shed until two years ago when the new owner purchased the FJ, the wagon was a throw in....(Nice throw in ..eh)
This wagon is for sale but don't attack with me pm's as I will post the owners details as soon as I get word from him.

P.s Alex, the printing plates take pride of place in his display cabinate and I don't think he would part with them ever. he actually bought them in a box of lead that he was planning to melt down for fishing weights!!!
p.p.s Another little bit of Trivia...the owner was born in an FJ ute...so he is an absolute Holden nut!!
