I HAD A OLDER MATE IN FOOTSCRAY IN 59 WHO HAD A RODDED PILOT SAME COLOUR GREEN AS THE ONE IN PIC HE ALSO HAD WW TYRES PROB FLAPPERS BACK THEN
WHEN MY DAD HAD HIS DK GREEN 34 SEDAN (similar colour to my pilot) HE SOLD IN 54 VERY LOW MILEAGE AS HE RODE A BIKE TO WORK OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR HAD A 33 OR 34 SEDAN AROUND THAT TIME VERY SINILAR COLOUR TO LIGHT GREEN PILOT
IN 20YRS FROM NEW DADS 34 HAD 22K MILES ON IT WHEN HE SOLD IT FOR 210 POUNDS ($420)

If it has tits or wheels, you can expect trouble.

Must've missed this post! I'd better go seartching for "unread posts".

BTW Pilot Guys, I have a pair of headlights if anyone wants 'em.
Yeah. I've changed my signature. The old one was out of date...

When I picked up my Pilot last week I got the chance to check out this Pilot ute believed to be the only one on the road in SA, possibly the whole country. Anyone ever seen one?

The bloke had stacks of info on Pilots in general and the rarer options and styles.

I reckon the ute would be a rare beast here in Aus , i like it .
The guy you bought the pilot off seems to have a big interest in them , he didn't have a hoard of spare parts did he ?
