HQ Ute, chop or save?

[HK1837]

It is the 21st V8 Belmont ute from Elizabeth. 5-6 months into HQ commercial production and that is all there were made at that assembly plant.

I bet it was a 253 3spd with 3.08:1 non LSD axle with no air or steer. It was a bench seat car too. If the body is good, keep it. If not cut it up. If you don't want the tags as a keepsake, send them to me. I don't buy tags, but happy to swap you something else of interest. I try to keep all sorts of tags as reference material, mainly to help spot remade tags, as originals have all sorts of quirks associated with them at different timeframes at different plants.

So if i understand you correctly HK it was the last V8 HQ built in SA?
