I'm pretty sure its gone to a good home . Exporters don't usually spend that much $$$. Not up here anyway . Hopefully the new owner knows or finds this website and lets us know about their new purchase. 1 Quote Keith Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67730-spectacular-r-model-up-for-auction/page/3/#findComment-478761 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Bob, I think if it went to Australia about the only man down there, with that big a checkbook to also include shipping, would be Tony Champion. He already has several left hand drive vehicles in his collection. 2 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67730-spectacular-r-model-up-for-auction/page/3/#findComment-478807 Share on other sites More sharing options...
