Wow, as an old petrolhead there was some great stuff there. My history included 37 Ford sedan, Single Spinner sedan, 54 Customline, 65 Mustang 2+2, 68 2+2, 67 Mercury Cougar, 68 Camaro, 70 Cougar, 70 Mercury Cyclone Comet. Then I discovered Porsches. 70 911T, 71 911T, 74 Carrera, and 76 911 Carrera.
My remaining toy is 81 BMW 635 csi. Motorbikes??? Too many to remember. I had 2 motorbike shops, one of which was a Harley Davidson agency. Current bike....M109R.

1971 I went to WA for the first time.
A few mates and I purchased a Ford Customline for the trip, can't recall the year but got us to Kal and was like sitting in a recliner all the way.
Cost a heap in fuel and we sold it for more than we paid for it. Great Memories.

Goldchaser1, what can I say???? Sweet mate. Simmons wheels too I note.

There cheap copies the wheels reg ,nice wheels but about the only ones i could get machined to fit up front with the hr front end,it was a show car mid 80s,built 81-2,starting to show its age a bit especially the black ext paint,needs a strip and respray down the track,startin to go through all the rubbers etc,all pretty perished,undercarriage all in gold,fits the lifestyle a bit....

I am looking for one of these, they are an abomination as far as cars go but I want one. If you think it looks like a washing machine your onto something. Proudly made in Adelaide. A small batch were sold to one of Melbourne's council's so might be one hidden in an old warehouse somewhere over there.

pm me if you find one
 
The bottom one is the sports model, I could see you in one of them Jaros looking cool, picking up chicks :lol: lol.
 
Goldchaser, that old lumpy is one nice machine. And has some history too. The E type is a bargain, can't believe it is still for sale.
I know where there are 2 gogomobiles sitting in a yard, fibreglass bodys and complete but the guy says that they can sit there till he dies. Pity really
My HR's are not as tidy as the rest of my cars but are origonal. Hopefully will be starting one and driving it later today. The other one will be a few weeks before that drives out the shed.
 
Goggo mobiles and zetas are similar. The ones I am looking for are adelaide made by lightburn industries which also made washing machines and cement mixers. They even made a ute model apparently. Might struggle carrying a bag of potatoes up a hill though.
