Holden actually backed the Jackaroo's in the Australian Safari Rally in 2001 with Peter Brock and Bruce Garland.I wonder if they survived?

A mate in WA bought the 05 Jackaroo last year. It had been rolled later in its life, and looks a little worse for wear. I believe it is tucked away to be restored.

Just because something owes you $200'000 dose not mean it is worth the same, best of luck Selling that Tod, I can never see them being that desirable, cheers Aaron.

Might have been ambiguous. I meant the number 05 Jackaroo, as per the first pics on the thread

Not sure how many HSV Jackaroos were built but i found one a Red one HSV Build 001 at Pick and Payless wreckers in Blacktown around 18 months ago. It was out the back, no crash damage partialy stripped and no doubt off to the crusher. I thought the stickers were just a joke til i found HSV Build tag and owners manual in glove box. As much as i would have loved to pinch the tag i left it. Have photos but too much frigging round.
