I was doing a job yesterday and saw a HZ ute with a fibreglass canopy on the back that made it look like a fastback. Even had the little bobtail at the back. The back hatch weighed a tonn when I lifted it up (no struts) But it was a really good job making it. I was just wondering if this canopy was a one off or were there more made? Has anyone else seen one? |
If a man say's something in the woods and there is no women around, is he still wrong? |

I have seen a couple of these over the years. I knew a bloke who had one back in the late 80's (he actually still has it as I found out recently).
I can't remember what they were called or who made them though.
I personally didn't like them at all bu

There were a few of these getting around in the 80's. There is a nice dark blue HQ-WB ute in Newcastle with a WB Caprice front and one of these on it - looks great. There was lots of this sort of stuff made for Holdens when they were all the rage. Someone |
