Kevin Predegast was the owner of both these tops. The yellow one was sitting on a VW floor pan and the one below has a toyota V8 in it. Kevin still has it.

The yellow Fiat was owned by a panel beater in Murrumbeena approx 24 years ago. He bought it for his son. Son did not like it so it goy sold on. John.

Here is a challenge, who has a pic of my dads Essex at the there at the Nats ???
Was the Essex a roadster? I don't have a photo but I remember a Essex roadster at the Go Whoa it was really fast and I remember the long hared girl in it. Could have been your mum :)
No. it was a lime coloured coupe

I remember that car at the 1980 street machine nationals at Narranderra, I was there in a green HQ SS, still have the bottle of plonk unopened that came in the goody bag.
If you see it on a trailer dial 000 its probably stolen.

^ That looks like the neat lil' green sedan that was at RodStock&Custom a few weeks back. Same old Ford wheel & all. It had a Confederates or T-Birds plaque on it.

Yer, that is his coupe..
It is the same as the sedan at Bendigo..
The coupe was rebuilt in the 90s. And is now identicle to the sedan ...
