Probably still does.

A few weeks ago at the no-longer-operating Bacchus Marsh wrecker's yard that I have mentioned before, three Citroen DS/ID shells were still there. The ID was a cheaper model. The ones in the yard look like pre-1965 ID's. Some of these were assembled in Heidelberg, Melbourne. (I have never had a ride in one.)

This morning a bright orange Datsun 180B station wagon pulled alongside me....in neat condition too

xkxlxm · 06-04-2023, 04:38 PM

WB panel van, white, V8, club permit plates.

Took me awhile to remember to post this from my local area. Doesn't suck to be a P plater.

xkxlxm · 09-04-2023, 01:28 PM

Starlet, a black one (possibly not even a common colour for these 20 years ago?) and Qld registered.

Can you steal the bodykit for me (assuming it's a genuine one)

DRU842 · 13-04-2023, 09:13 PM

There are a few bits of trim missing from the non-photo'd side.

She's a beauty, love the roof rack timber boards.

Sitting down to lunch on the back of the truck and what do I see but a lovely stock original early Valiant Charger coming up the back creek road, Hemi humming on the climb.
The 4 older blokes onboard laughed and waved as I stood up and gave them a Hey Charger V salute.

XR Martin · 19-04-2023, 09:59 PM

In Orange the last few days, and saw a Diahatsu Fiori.
Then on my way back to Canberra I was going through Cowra and spotted a very rough green RT104 Corona, it was so bad I reckon most demolition derby cars are in better shape.

Even comes with a feature a 2023 Workmate Hilux doesn't come with, intermittent wipers.

Wow, even my 80's Ford Trader truck has a tilt steering column and them.

Spotted these 2 today. The Capri I've seen in Yack a couple of times.

The Dodge motorhome (wasn't close enough) is a rare one in Oz. Looks to be a early to mid 70's US made Coachman.

xkxlxm · 20-04-2023, 04:31 PM

Today: a Jag XJS convertible, red. Couldn't see if it was on full reg. or on club permit.

(I like that Sigma wagon.)

submacd · 20-04-2023, 04:34 PM

Can’t add photo

**DJM83** · 20-04-2023, 06:52 PM

My neighbours son had one of these when they were new. Can't remember the last time I saw one though. Long time.

Interceptor · 21-04-2023, 10:36 AM

What cars dont I see many of these days? Cars that I actually want to own & drive.....

**DFB FGXR6** · 22-04-2023, 08:02 PM

Spotted a T1 or T2 TL50 in the car park today, which was attending the Melbourne to MOVE meet at the car museum next door. Didn't get a chance to see it up close, but it was pretty sinister looking in Silhouette.

xkxlxm · 23-04-2023, 07:06 AM

I saw a Volt yesterday. The net tells me Holden only sold about 250 of them so we never really saw many of them anyway.

**98TLS** · 23-04-2023, 08:49 AM

Rubbish pic but an Edsel,big ugly but had some lovin really was tidy.

ford71V8 · 23-04-2023, 11:16 AM

Stopped in at Supercheap yesterday and there was a Studebaker in the carpark.

roKWiz · 23-04-2023, 05:09 PM

A few you don't see that often at the show.

Love the 5.2 Val van. Original option rear spoiler and Auger window cover.

Umm, brick sh*thouse and Dodge Pueblo built the same. 10ft long tub. Straight as a die.

One for CB. A french beauty.

kevino · 23-04-2023, 06:34 PM

Sighted a Holden Volt on the M1 in Logan today.
Like prev poster Google told me GMH sold only 250.
Way ahead of their time
