J & S Hunter, one of about 17 cars produced.  The Aussie number plate was a very useful clue for me.

Quite right - but I'm looking for the model designation.  ;)

After such a long time, I don't feel bad anymore about jumping in to claim the point. It's a J&S Hunter 179 Coupé, or Holden 179 Coupé, as it is also called.

Lots of recent photos of these cars about but not so many period ones, so these might be worth posting despite the less than brilliant quality
