No boot on the gear lever and late model, late 66 onwards, seats. Looks tidy.

but dave unless someone has found the spearhead 1500 badges and the black front grille badge ,as I mentioned and the chassis will confirm it it has the old style door and window handles see bembokas ..no visible earth straps on the bonnet as early ones had a generator. mmmmmmmmmm and seats do look awfully 66 when you look at garys cars trim its that old style will wait and see what the chassis is that will verify if its up there with the first models ????

The trim came from the auto sold on ebay with the seized engine on the gold coast. I will not say anymore.

I WOULD BUY THAT CAR IN A HEARTBEAT IT IF IT WAS A COLUMN SHIFT!!!
YEAH I'M YELLING OR DOING DAVO BULLITT SPEAK OR WHATEVER BUT THAT CAR IS TOTALLY, FREAKING AWESOME.
Well, that's my opinion. I'm assuming it's a 1964 with bits on it rather than a newer car with 1964 bits on it! Either way, I've got a stiffie!
SOMEONE PLEASE BUY IT AND LOVE IT AND SPOON IT!

Davo, why are you not up there?? Surely this is the nicest teardrop you've seen, and it must be early. I like it a lot, but then, I would. Though the upholstery is not true to model, its still Bellett and in good nic. And more comfy. I'd be surprised if it is a lower number than Gary's as his is the first one sold in Sydney, but you never know, and anyway, its the only other '64 model year I know of. Rarer than a PR90! Get into it before my bidder finger goes spac! (Probably going into Gunna's collection?)
Cheers, Matt.

Hi All,
Had a great chat to Keith tonight about his beautiful little teardrop.
We will be visiting him on Saturday afternoon on our impromptu "take our belletts out for a drive around the scenic rim" day.
He is on the way, as we travel thru Crows Nest near Toowoomba.
All who are available are welcome to join.
Dean

I always thought that Colonial Motors in the Valley were the first dealers for Bellett in Qld. How come it has a Willys Motor vin plate
