Brochure curiosity - VE Safari Photos

Post by CLPete »

In my ceaseless search to find images of all of the Australian Valiants that were ever in the UK, I've come upon these images from a website called virtualgaz.com.

They are part of a photoset that this website has:

Virtualgaz.com

So thanks to them for the posting.

They look a bit like promo shots.

The car in question was registered in Jan 1968, and they only started making them in October 1967 in Aus, which suggest the promo angle has legs.

Sadly, now dead as of November 1983 (well, untaxed).

Interesting though.
