Upper Middle Petrol Head:

This EH Holden ute, photographed the Correspondent for the Australian Capital Territory in downtown Canberra a week or two back, looks great.  Annoyingly, the upper-facing clear coat is letting the rest of the car down - having blistered and peeled, as often happens - but otherwise the metallic grey duco really suits the car, its panels are straight and free of rust and the chrome's in fabulous nick, too.  The Aunger "jelly beans", wood-rimmed steering wheel and sports mirrors are all bang-on for era and the bucket seats don't look out of place, either.  U M P H (uppermiddlepetrolhead.blogspot.com.au.) iPhone images by the CACT

There's not much that needs to be said about this wonderful old XP ute, really.  It presented more like a five year old car than one that's fifty five, having as it did excellent duco, straight, rust free panels and really good chrome.  It was running a set of twelve-slots but, other than that, appeared to be totally unmolested.
