I believe every car manufacturer sends at least one of every model to Atlanta as historical evidence of it being made. They are then sold to a grandma who owns it until she dies, then an unsuspecting relative uses it for a year and sells it on craigslist.

Because Atlanta is the one CL site to rule them all.

Circa 1987 XF ute, if the front is correct should be I6, or they swapped early front doghouse of an XD/XE, then of course an engine swap is possible.

Just saying wrong engine for the model.

Not collectable, only value is that its a ute and its unusual in the US.

No price damn them
