                                        Formerly N4359V, this 195 was imported in May of 1960.  The 190/195 series were built in the
                                        days when dollar imports were restricted in Australia, and hence only this, plus a 190 (VH-BVD)
                                        ever made it onto the VH- register.     The above photo was taken by Greg Banfield at Camden,
                                        NSW in October 1972 whilst the shot below. from the Neil Follett collection, was at Moorabbin
                                        in February 1964.  -AVZ is still current and registered to a private owner in Tamworth, NSW.
                                        It showed up at the 2017 Wings Over Illawarra show at Wollongong, in a rather gaudy color
                                        scheme, as seen in the shot at the bottom of the page by Phil Vabre.
