With Stacey talking about his army days prompted me to think about former South Australian member, Andrew Nairn who was in the army and at Townsville about the same time. Stacey may know him. His Mark 7 must be the most travelled one outside Johnny Szabo's. It lived in South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia and Victoria that I know of. That's army life! Here's a couple of photos of it when the original builder, Ron McPherson, had it.

John, I have a sneaking suspision that the 1st photo isn't RonMac, the car appears to have a narrow black stripe down the middle, and am I correct in detecting the rear window is being pushed down, maybe 7's don't need rear spoilers added!

It doesn't look like Macca driving it either. The photo is one of Henry's.
