There is ute in similar condition rusting away in a front yard in Glebe Road in Newcastle, and a Pacer sedan right on the cliff’s edge above the surf in Merewether, it’d be rust by now.

Id love a VG Hardtop. They are getting expensive now because everything else is out of reach.... 

 

My old man wants an AP6 to relive his youth, but they all seem to have rusted away... never ever see any of em...

Yes I would love an old CM wagon, with the nice grill. Just good paint and a nice set of wheels for a cruiser.
