W427s. Keeping track of them
I thought I'd start this thread as there seems to be a few ads for them in the W427 vs GTS thread, It would be nice if we can identify all the W427's built. I'd prefer to go with information in the public domain for privacy reasons, such as a Carsales listing, but if you are lucky enough to own one, feel free to add your details.

I remember seeing a W427 parked out the front of the Holden dealer in Orange for a number of days when I was in town, I presume the dealer principal owned it. I have also seen a W427 driving up the Bruce Hwy. In the other thread I think someone mentioned the W427 re-painted in Lambo green was crashed and written off.
Happy hunting.
Cheers, Matthew

I spent most of my money on unreliable cars and less reliable women, the rest I wasted.
