Has it been in a wreck or something or did it come like this from factory? Cheers Edited by user Monday, 6 January 2025 8:46:50 PM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

It’ll be a Pagewood (NSW) body and tags with an Elizabeth (SA) chassis. Firewall number will be reasonably close to the chassis number in the compliance plate.
