Another find....

G'day all,
A couple of photos of a pick-up during the week; yes i am fortunate of late. I have driven past this car for around 25 years on numerous trips to the Flinders Ranges, I have even thought about knocking on the door to inquire about it but it looks pretty intimidating with tall fences, roo shooting rig and ravenous dogs inside the compound. Turns out my friend north of Hawker knows the guy so I had an in this time when I was up there last week. The guy was actually pretty harmless, the car unfortunately is a little too far gone and stripped out to make it worth recovering. I did get the trim kit out of him which is great as I have two incomplete kits already so hopefully I will be able to make up two full kits now. The biggest shame about the whole deal is the Wilsonia gauge that was smashed and left out in the weather, I grabbed it anyway; maybe I will be able to do something with it.
Keep searching....Al
