Probably get lynched for posting a Holden on a Ford based forum :+,  but I thought this was a nice find on my grandmothers farm...




I've little idea what it is though.
Missing the engine too. Grill's in pretty impressive condition though.

It's been there for as long as i can remember, as you can see by the moss growing on it :+ .

Looks like an FC ute to me. I'd bet someone would take it off your hands & restore it.

Don't think the family would let go of it :).
I think it belonged to my grandfather, might have to ask around tomorrow.

Thanks for the info :(

Gawd there's an invasion afoot, and we're out in the pony paddock.

What with a pommie S3 Jag Sovereign with pepperpots and an old 1958 FC Holden ute, what's next.....probably a grey Fergie tractor trundling around with a chisel plough.

Still it's a bit of a change from an all Mustang diet I suppose.  ;x

Not knockin' the Jag mate, just surprised to see it.

Wife had identical one (but green) for years, and it was a magic carpet ride.

But the service bills.........holy jermoly ;]

High maintenance for sure. Just at the last stages of a head gasket nightmare :_ .

Mussie one day though :)
