Team Australia was an auto racing team competing in the V8 Supercars and Champ Car World Series. It was created in early 2005 when two Australian businessmen Craig Gore and John Fish bought into Derrick Walker’s Walker Racing operation. After the 2007 the operation was scaled back to just Will Power. This Indy / Champ car is chassis number 02i-017 and Monocoque number E0148. It was sold new in February of 2002 to Team Green then to Derrick Walker Racing in 2003. In 2005 it was sold to Team Australia and raced by Australia’s own Will Power. Other drivers include David Besnard and Marcus Marshall. The car was also on display at the Surfer’s Paradise Lexmark Indy 300. Originally fitted with a 2.65-liter XFE Cosworth Turbo 800+ BHP engine paired with a Xtract 7 speed sequential transmission but is being solder as a roller only. A rare opportunity to secure a piece of Australian motor racing history. Please contact one of our friendly staff to make an appointment to view this car at our Kogarah showroom.
1954 HOLDEN FJ SPECIAL. The Holden FJ series is a range of motor vehicles which was produced in Australia by Holden from 1953 to 1956. The FJ was the second model of an “all Australian car” manufactured by Holden and was based upon the established 48-215 series, commonly referred to as the “FX”. The FJ, of monocoque construction, broadly followed the silhouette of its predecessor, but featured a bolder horizontal styled front grille, along with comfort and decoration upgrades in a new sedan model named the ‘Holden Special’. Nothing says Australia more than an FJ Holden and nothing says immaculate more than one we have here for sale!! Both inside and out this FJ Holden Special this car is simply beautiful and a true testament to all its custodians it has had in its lengthy 67 year life. Finished in its original colour, “Cockatoo Cream” with contrasting brown leather interior this car has CLASSIC written all over it. This FJ also has all of its original running gear and has only travelled a mere 62,000 miles. Sold new by Ziems Great Western Garage in Katoomba, New South Wales on the 17th of November, 1954 with all logbooks and sales dockets still with the car. Something that is almost impossible to find in a car of this vintage. This FJ Holden is an absolute must for the Holden collector!!
