I was very interested to see the cars pictured on the link! The Austin "Bakers van" was built by my late uncle in Port Augusta a few years back & was regularly seen around town & in processions & pageants. My Aunty will be very interested to see it again. A small "pedantic" point, the Holden is not an FJ but is a 48-215 (commonly called an FX, but no such name was officially used) While it is certainly not British it was actually designed by GM's Chevrolet division late in WW11 but the design handed to Holdens when Chev decided not to build it. Cheers, Les.
