I'm doubting the story based on the picture. Looks like it was placed there?

Edit: Now that I have seen the pics on my computer screen and I'm fully awake I definitely call BS.

NO CHANCE that thing rolled there!

Tried to re-edit again but can't.. perhaps there is a SLIM chance it rolled in backwards right between the 2 still upstanding head stones???

Backwards is plausable.
Explains the lack of front damage (apart from the front chrome bumper missing)

I really wish the proof writers would do their research. That's a HQ not a HX. HJ-X-Z confusion I can understand as they're all visually the same except for the grills, but the HQ has unique front and rear styling that can't be mistaken....unless you really don't know what you're talking about.

I`d want to go there to if I heard someone was going to pay one million for a later model Monaro.

it's an HQ Premier - NOT an HX. What was the paper thinking?
