I don't mean it to be offensive, so please don't take it that way, but you really seem to like the 'unusual' ones haha.

It's a rather famous Australia car from the 1960's albeit famous for its failure rather than success.

I think the unusual ones should be easier to ID as they are so different with recognisable unique features unlike many of the modern look-a-like clones.

The fortunes of the maker were founded on something often found on building sites.

You're right about that. The modern ones are mostly generic boxes.

Yes the Zeta was one of those cars when you saw the odd one in the 60's you had to laugh and wonder what possessed the owner to buy it - especially as a mini was only a few hundred dollars more.
