Hi Vombil,

yes it has WA plates. I would love to see more pics of this car and some info on it.. It appears a nice looking van from what I can see.

If you can remember what month you bought it in we have a chance of maybe finding it, but not a very big chance unless we know which assembly plant built it. You don't know which plant built it? Being Broken Hill probably Pagewood (Sydney) but possibly also Adelaide. Did it have a body colour firewall or was it black?

Hi HK1837, Firewall was black and I would be pretty sure it was built at Elizabeth as the local dealer was supplied via Adelaide, I just found an old log book that I used to keep for my cars on trips and the Capri's last entry was 10/74 and the first one for the Kingswood was 12/74 (went down to Adelaide to Suzi Quatro), 8 gallons from Broken Hill to Yunta, (about 125 miles),so I must have been pushing it a bit..lol..Cheers

So it must be a late Elizabeth HQ, probably 9/74 to be Persian Sand. Unfortunately Elizabeth HQ records are missing from 7/74 to the end of HQ so we'll never find her :-(
