I think that car is still around. It was called something like the "Shark" at some stage. Last time I saw it (Mid 80's), it was all black. Looked good. I will see if I can find a shot of it

Hey Rob
   Can imagine why they called it the "shark"   and black would have to look better then Magenta, and blue wheel wells

This is "The Shark", which has been mentioned on these boards previously.  I heard that the car was found at a tip by a friend of the "Old Oldens" wrecker in Adelaide.
