This is a unique car, thought to be in the only one built in this specification. Ordered by the NSW Government, it went to the Australian Police ( now named Australian Federal Police ) where it spent the first three months of its life as an evaluation vehicle, covering over 4,000kms, before being sold into the private hands via an advert in the Canberra Times. What makes this car unique is that it is was the only one build with a 318 V8 Engine and a four speed manual gearbox. Indeed, as verified by Valient InfoBase, it is also the only one built in its body colour / trim colour combination and option specification, including laminated windscreen, left hand exterior mirror, heated rear window, and push button radio. There's also a set of factory mudflaps and a towbar. Period option Sankey Benson W35 alloy wheels have since been retro-fitted to this 1978 cop mobile as well. In daily use since 2005, it is now in the hands of a retired gentleman and driven sparingly and well maintained.
