1840-40X Strike Me Pink and Black trim

Built in Acacia Ridge, sent to Trentham NZ, as GMHNZ factory import, Sold through Linwood Wilks in Wanganui.

Still has the original steel wheels, and is in unrestored condition.

The engine is getting a freshen up, cam is worn, pistons were cracked, rings broken.

Another to add to the SMP list.

Cheers.

That's going to take some work to restore it. Love how the chassis number has been misread on the rego papers.

 

I wonder where they got the idea for the story that it was sold new into Victoria? It still has its Hunt Holden Lakemba rear window sticker on it which is what Dealer 615 was, with the NSW zone office against it.

How good is a we archive!!! 

 

Can ya dig up all the posts Al deleted in his own threads too? lol

[N/A-PWR]

WBM can only see public threads,

 and not threads that we need to be a Member to see.

 

But yes, you could find some posts that are public. 

 

Find a post that has the deleted bit,

 and copy that url, and then put into WBM search,

 then select the year 2017 (before all got deleted).

But be aware, that not all pages here are archived by the WBM.
