valiant1962 ◊ 2007-01-22 06:50	Based on UK A55 Cambridge I think, but with six cylinder (2.4L) from Wolseley I believe. Unique to Australia. This one also very rare wagon version. Built at BMC Sydney plant so origin AUS -- Last edit: 2007-01-22 06:51:20
valiant1962 ◊ 2007-01-22 21:44	Engines were Australian built design called the Blue Streak. The Wolseley version called the 24/80 was also produced, as a sedan only. (24/80 stood for 2.4 litre/80 hp)

(24/80 stood for 2.4 litre/80 hp) That thing about the engines named Blue Streak recall to have read on an "Auto Super Market"used car ad and on the 1986 book "Aussie Cars",edited by Marque in AUS
