Default 411 series 6 in Sydney Australia

A few weeks ago I left home and one block from me, parked outside a cafe was a beautiful 411 Series 6.
I got out to admire the car and the owner arrived and i had a chat with him for 10 minutes while he showed me around the car.
It was in the classic gunmetal grey colour with ox blood seats and red carpeting. It featured cream dials. The workmanship was faultless, even the detailing in the boot.
The owner thought it was original a series 5 car from around 1975 that was converted 2015.
The wheels were similar to a Blenheim but were larger being at least 17" if not 18', I did not look closely at the tires to read this unfortunately.
The engine bay had a modern engine of course, I did see the word mopar on one of the rocker covers. The owner thought the engine was a 5.2 but i would have thought it would have been a 5.9??

This example seems to have been given the full treatment in being up-graded to a series 6, it was a sight to behold.

All the best for 2021.

Regards
