HSV Jackaroo #058 Now Undergoing Restoration

Some good news to share, HSV Jackaroo #058 has been picked up by a new owner who has committed to restoring it.

On purchase, the test drive certainly proved the car’s resilience—it was driven from Maitland to Oberon towing a trailer without issue. The plan for the build is already underway, with a fresh re-spray scheduled and new HSV badges and decals on order.

Even better, the owner made a stop at the Shannons Sydney Classic over the weekend. This gave us the rare chance to see both #057 and #058, sister cars reunited after decades.

It’s an exciting chapter for 058, and I’ll be posting more updates as the restoration progresses.
