    John Anderson, ex deputy PM restored a series 2

    Saw in the paper (The Australian) that John Anderson, retiring leader of the Nats has just completed restoring his 1959 Land Rover (Igues its a series2). It was bought new by his father.

    It will be on show at a fair somewhere in his electorate.

    There was a story about him and his Landrovers in LROI a few years ago.

    I don't think so - he lives in Gunnedah not Emu plains. (and is my local member until he retires on 24/11)
