Two out of three identified, the VE was stolen in 2014, has been collected from us and taken to auction, the XF ute went missing in 1999, then, get this, was 'recovered' in 2004... From the location it was in....

not sure how they identified it under water or why the hell they left it there....
Almost there with the GTO

I'd kill for another munro, I'd love a k,t or g and a VZ, I was working at the Holden plant when the prototype VZ's apeared, they still look as good now as then. I think the prices have bottomed out on them as well, when Holden shut I reckon prices on a lot of models will go up over night

how do you find them ? can you see them from the surface, or do you dive under or use a fish finder or something?

Nah, as per the first photo can see them in the water (if you look hard you can see the rear end upright (car was floating nose down)) we wouldn't get in this pond, although the water looks ok in the pics, its ground water (very salty) and very polluted, the fumes coming off the vehicles are bad, hard to get near them to check the ID's, The water smells like kero...
