If you are looking for a great project HQ restoration car to work on then this is worth a drive to inspect! This HQ has only ever had one owner who passed away last year. This vehicle was his pride and joy. It was used ultimately as a trade vehicle for the majority of its life, and then was used in retirement to travel around Australia. It does have a lot of km's on it and been around the clock. There is a service history and log books for this vehicle, we are just not sure how complete they are. He was meticulous in keeping log books, but considering the vehicle is so old, we are not sure if we have found them all.
