Back in 1976 used to pre deliver and service the HX range from Belmont to Statesman and Utes to Panelvans. Great times back then and sad to see the way Detroit decided to end manufacturing in Australia.
I've always liked utility vehicles. Whether it's used for business, personal, or pleasure, it needs to be rugged enough to withstand whatever you use it for. If it doesn't, it's crap.
My Dad had an ĤX Premier 4.2 in 1978 New company car.Bronze colour Brown Vinyl Bucket Seats.A/C P/S Tbar auto. Was a cool car❤
Ahh the memories of working on these when I was an apprentice, they were so simple and near bullet proof, we even had some dual axle converted ones
That's fantastic to see your video clip, Still driving my HX Belmont van after buying it in 1987, very basic machine, but so reliable.

I can see the bloke in the utes playing a villain in _Bluey_ ...would be surprised if he didn't. ☺
My favourite variant is the cab chassis
3.3 asthmatic wheezebox engines.
I think that is Max Cullen if I'm not mistaken
Nope, it's his elder brother Fred. Died 1982......Max is still alive though. Both great Aussie actors.
