Another Noob from Oz
Not many of the '65 AP6 utes were made and most of them were put to work on farms with no protection and as a result most were rusted pretty badly in the rear areas. I drive all over the state of N.S.W. with my job and they are pretty scarce, I still find the odd one here and there but they require an awful lot of work,. I guess they can all be saved depending on one's motivation and skill or finances, after all "it's only metal". If you're interested in importing an aussie ute one day you'd probably find a VC '67 model ute a lot easier to come by which share's the same rear styling as the '65 but has different front panels, such as this one which I sold recently for AU$ 14000.
