Australian International Motor Show Auction 10 July 2011

Just noticed that Shannons are having an auction on 10 July at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (the Australian International Motor Show Auction) and there are three cars that might interest forum members. Firstly there is a 1962 Holden EK Utility http://www.shannons.com.au/auctions ...

Re: FJ ute

I was walking down Glebe Point Road a while back and saw this parked there. I've seen it in Leichhardt too - in the Markettown car park:

I was down at Penrith a few days ago and parked in the council car park at the back of the High Street shops. When I went back to my car I came across these three:
