    Default Looks like a big car collector has gone bust... HRT427 and others at auction..

    Search Results - Pickles Auctions Australia

    Looks like the Qld builder Chooka has had his cars sent to Pickles for what will be a auction of many dream cars.... 23 cars, 12 of which are Monaro bodied will go under the hammer in Belmore early June... Sad to see an avid car collector go under, but hope they all go to good homes.

    This one is the best looking of the lot;

    How much rust is lurking under her shiny exterior is the big mystery!

    I wonder how "the builder" forgot to hide them before he went bust!

    7L 427 at the bottom is dam crazy. Doesnt state how many kilometers though (planning on buying - pending bank robbery). That car would fly!

    that gts-r was only for sale in qld around 6 months ago.

    and i'm sure it had more than 79kms on it, cause it was the car that the journalists used to test them.

    think it was for sale for $82k

    First ever VS GTS
