When I lived in yunta sa 1995 to 2003 a local there had an original 4x4 ute and he bought it new, he said to me it was built in tassi but he may have been mistaken

[Valencia]

It might have been built there not to sure on the utes

[Innuendo]

Arthur Haywood's Overland Motor Company Pty Ltd of Tasmania built approximately 120 Overlanders over 14 years.
Made up of Ute's, Van's and later Wagons.

And Statesmans and cab-chassis. As above the early ones (HJ and HX) were all utes and vans, although he did build them in the 80's out of secondhand HQ-HX wagons and Statesmans too.
