Its any car older than 30 years. So it doesn't qualify yet for a Variety Bash.

However there are a few ferral ute competions held each year and this thin would definately make the finals.

Smile Isuzu Gemini - a real car ad

Here's something I stumbled over from a video site just now and found highly amusing. I wish we could have performance driving like this in ads today! Imagine the XR5Turbo filmed with these antics afoot...

Hope it's not a repost! If so, mods you know what to do ;)
