You ruined your chances of getting a good turn out by putting 'Australian' in the title.
Thats entirely appropriate since the 'UTE' is an Australian invention (not like the 'pickups' that other countries produce. There can't be more than a couple of dozen genuine 'Utes' (Holden, HSV or Phraud) in the UK.
The Ranchero most certainly is a true 'ute'. It was a utility version of the Ford torino and shared a similar relationship with the Torino that the Clubsport/Maloo share.

Don't forget the 'El Camino' too!

I think the "Open to all" is a give away it is good to have a theam, bring the Skoda along by all means would be a good comparison between european and Aus/NZ style cars. As it is open to all I think I will bring the old HSV along.
