Default Has anyone seen this vehicle before??

Last thursday comming back from Melb, near the avalon turn off i spotted this Ford 'crewman' it looked like a na/nc front end, with el mirrors and door handles and a ute tray on the back, with the hsv maloo style number plate setup with 'PRMOVE' all in a greyish, charcol colour, sorry about the bad quality pic but thats all i could get my hands on a bad quality camera phone...
It as i was driving past it looks like the car has the full size 4 doors. I was wondering if anyone has seen this before or if it possibily belongs to a forum member... it also had the VN SS group A style bonnet bulge (i think) and what sounded like a V8 under the hood or a really nice zorst.

If it has the LTD front, I think it's the one often seen in Geelong.

Dan and I spotted this car on our way home from FDC when we were towing my car back. We took on exit off the M1 close to geelong when the trailer was causing speed wobbles, took a side street to stop and reposition the car and we spotted this turning into his driveway.

I am in Adelaide and when i was getting my exhaust done a few years back, there was one very similar to that in the workshop having lowering blocks put in the rear. It obviously had the ute rear that had been grafted onto a NC (I think) Fairlane cabin area.

I used to see it around every now and then but come to think of it - I haven't seen it for a while!
