The only others that come to mind are the VZ Senator Skaife Signature model & the Greg Norman Statesman International Editions. You could also add the VC Brock & the VL Walkinshaw, although these werent badged that way. Dr Terry Edited by user Wednesday, 31 December 2008 10:11:27 PM(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

Sticking to the similar theme, just moving sideways a little, Holdens trim from VL-VS paid tribute to place

It looked a little different (red painted flares for one) and it had what looked like Brocks signature on the guards just behind the front wheels. Not sure if it was meant to be that way?? And if so why a Cross8?? ____

I thought that there may have been more than that, but we seem to have become bogged down in paint colours rather than special edition cars. Still open for your learned thoughts though, thanks.
