No, it's not Colin McAlister's. Not by a long shot.
These pictures, along with a few others, were posted on Facebook by someone who remembers the local dry cleaner's amazing taste in cars back in the late 60s and early 70s which included apart from the Bolwell, a Warwick Yellow GTS Monaro and an E38 Charger.
The Dry Cleaner shop proprietor was Doug Fenwick, an entrepreneurial business owner in Goulburn. The Bolwell was significant in that it was B8/2 and Doug was the first customer off the rank. Naturally it was a 1970 model, there being only one for 1969. It had very stiff rear springs as it was originally used for drag racing. It took Max Hadlow 14 years to talk Doug into selling it to him. Max had it for two and a half years and when sold it had only done 13,600 miles.
Royce Dockett bought and crashed this car in the late 90s. Not sure what happened to it after that.
