Howdy, spent my teenage years across the river from Mildura, when the van nats were proper big & loved the scene, had 100's of holdens as bush hacks & a yard full when I had a few acres of my own. I almost cry when I see what people are asking & (getting???) for rusted pieces of snot these days. $50-$100 got you a running FB to HR, 1 or $200 got you a V8 & $500 got you rego, aahhh, those were the days! (sniff, sob cry)
Spent the last 20 years around the Top-end & sick of seeing 4wds, although my blue van embarassed a lot of big money 4x4's in the kimberley.
Currently in the Kimberley with a 60 series land cruiser/V8 chev Diesel trying to decide to;- cut it into a ute,/ newer cruiser /back to a Van or Torana.
Cheers,
Wilko.
