We even had a helicopter built in the workshop for Kent Baigent owner of Tellus Vacuum Cleaners in 1985 This photo was taken when moving the workshop over to new premises in FOX St Parnell From Eglon St. Was a Rota Way Kitset built by aircraft engineer and Blair Crossan. Our workshop was also used by advertising companies in the area who were also customers for automotive adds. Customers like Saatchi & Saatchi and Clemenger BBDO.

Good to see the old Rangie is in its natural habitat - in the workshop with the bonnet up!

Cant quite make out if it’s a 2-door or 4-door from the photo, I know the 2-door ones go for moonbeams nowadays.

Jon, it's a 2-door Range Rover.  It's suffered a Car Dealer's tart-up two-tone paint job, as was popular in the 80's.

Glenn, I wonder if that 3.0Cs is still around?  Nothing on CarJam for IW5960.
