Holden HX Statesman. The Deville wears Red.
Holden HX Statesman: Classic Aussie motoring from from the 1970’s. This was Holden’s top of line model for the HX series. The Statesman Deville had it all. It certainly was a long car with plenty of over hang (for a Holden that is).

FIAT 2000 Spider: Regular FIAT 124 Sport coupes occasionally can still be seen around. However, the convertible Spider version is a lot rarer. I was so glad to get a shot of this awesome black 2000 Spider.

1959 Chevrolet Bel Air. Looking for twin.
1959 Chevrolet Bel Air 4 door sedan: Gisel from Germany is the proud owner of this rare South African produced ’59 Chevy Bel Air. He recently spotted my post of the 2011 Chevrolet 100 Year Anniversary & Cruise and noticed a ’59 Bel Air almost exactly the same as his (as pictured below). Gisel would be interested in contacting the owner of this car which most likely is (or was) a member of the Chevrolet Club of WA.

Mercedes 450SE. For Sale.
Mercedes 450SE: A local car yard has added a classic1970’s vintage Mercedes 450SE to their mix of regular vehicles . It’s been there for while and certainly draws plenty of attention from people driving past… which perhaps is a clever idea to attract buyers into the yard. The car is at Fine Rides 595 Albany Highway Victoria Park WA 6100.

Leyland Mini Clubman
Leyland Mini Clubman: Clubman style Mini from the 1970’s. Not as stylish as the original Mini’s, but had more room under the bonnet and is still a great little car. This one has the front wheel disc brakes, with minilite mags. Also has a GT badge on the side suggesting this a Clubman GT specced car.
