In 1993 I was offered a beautiful straight looking silver 1980 CM Valiant Regal with an unusual dark blue cloth trim for $200 with a blown engine. I was a poor student with no driver's licence. I have never seen one with that blue trim since.
I remember finding an HK taillight in a council curbside collection pile in the early 2000s and just placing it back on the pile!

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
