i'm nearly of the same vintage as yourself calaber,i grew up on a diet of hr's, eh's, hq's-the worst holden ever built for rust,its like they started to rust from the factory!lol, 70's falcons were'nt far behind, cheap petrol and rego though i remember my old man doing his block as we drove past a servo in the 70's, petrol went up to 12cpl from 10cpl, what an outrage!!,despite being dinosaurs these days compared to what we drive now i still miss them on the roads today and miss owning them too, their simplicity in design and ease of repair will never again be matched! as for my contributiuon to what you dont see anymore- how about the leyland p76,most of them spent their early mths/years/? sitting in the paddock behind the factory in various states of completion because of the union probs that leyland had and heres a howler- the nissan cedric!! the neighbour had one, took me years to figure out what the bloody thing was!
