There are still quite a few driving around in Australia, I bought one for 200 stole the electronic ignition from it and sold it the next day to some Arabs for 450.

I have no idea how many were made in the first place though so can't really answer that question.

I'm still waiting for the day to come when I see a coupe on the road.

Can someone post up the numbers of coupes/sedans that were built?

Mine is number KHGC110-002805

Hello Zedric,

I've seen probably 4-7 sedans on the road, and only about 2 or 3 Hardtops. I know of about 20 cars in Aus that I have not seen too. But most are sedan.

There are still quite a few in Australia as there were a lot made in the first place. More sedans than hardtops for sure.

Mustadd, are you saying you actually know where the original Bathurst-raced car is???

there are a few 240k enthusiasts in melbourne, and i've also heard that the bathurst car is around and with a loving owner (guy who owns nispares or a customer of his ???)

They have a photo of a 240K on their website, but they dont say it's 'the' bathurst 240K, so I guess someone will have to ask them.
