https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden It's no wonder why it looks like a 65 Chevy Malibu. Click the link, it explains it all. Nice Car! ❤Well, I admit I am a curmudgeon so it's only fitting that I rebel against the modern cars with all their computer chips, cameras and unmaintainability.
So... I have bought a car similar to my first car - and we'll see if bonding works. If it does I will spend money on it (new upholstery, air-con, decent sound system, etc)
For Aussies it's a 1968 HK Holden Premier wagon - 186 & three on the tree (6 cyl about 3 litres and manual trans on the steering column)
It's obviously not perfect but a good starting point.
Something I can maintain myself and not have snooping cameras and problems that only computer diagnosis can solve.
I travelled all over Australia in a similar spec ute between 1979 and 1990.
This is an experiment to see if I can make it a daily driver while I still have a year's warranty on the "new car" beside it - 50 years between them.
Cheers
BTW - that's grandson #1 in the back - he loves it!
