Yes we did. Mainly Scout 2s. There are not a real lot left around here however.

Kris, the owner of this one has 7 Scout II's and two Scout 80's. The scout 80's were actually assembled here in australia.

Right here in Dandenong, same goes for the D series 4x4, it makes a sham of the Mitsubishi add claiming that their new 4x4 magna is the first Aussie made 4x4.

The Inter 4x4 was out way before the overlander (as was the Oka), that is why I didn't include it, the Mitsubishi people said some bull about all wheel drive V 4 wheel drive or something like, that but if my memory serves me well, I think that the Inter D series panel van had a badge on the back that said "ALL WHEEL DRIVE".

If you'll excuse my ignorance, when was that? I thought the Overlander (Holden 4x4 wagon) was a product of the '70s (have I got the name wrong?) and I thought OKA was started in the '80s.

You are corect Scott, I meant the Oka was out before the Magna.
I can remember being driven to kindergarten in the early 60's by my mum in an OLD 4x4 inter, many happy memorys of that truck.

Does the Overlander really count? After all, wasnt it just a holden bodyshell on a crusier chassis?

Don't be confussed with all the xxx on a L/C chassis that where all the rage back then, I am not an overlander buff at all but I thought they used Dana diffs and transfer case, if I am wrong I am sure someone will chime in.

Yeah, Ive got those shots when they're actually moving, right after Besty winched up the same hill - I was watching it thinking why is he throwing bourbon cans into the bush? Nice truck, pity he can't "tread lightly" though.

AFAIK the scouts where built from knock down kit form now if you take that then try Late 40's for the Willy's wagaon built here in Australia in several factorys around the country from knock down kit form

After that all the AMC Jeeps were all so built from this.
