They were found behind a pub in South Africa, purchased for $15,000.00. I can't find the original Email regarding them, Rod Grimwood sent it to me around the 14 / 6 / 12.

Re the Aussie muscle cars, note how the Monaro has 4 headlights. Australian cars were assembled in South Africa for a time. The Falcon GTs were known as Fairmont GTs, the Monaro were called something like Chevrolet SS, or similar. With the values of these skyrocketing in recent years in Aus, the South African variants are finding their way into Aus for much less money.

Wow, incredible! The red car missing most of its upper bodywork is either an Iso Grifo or Bizzarini! Really desirable cars.
