Yep. Purple 58 Velox. Used to jump out of top gear (3rd). Drove for miles with my hand resting on the column gear change lever. Also done for drink driving.

No I haven't but worked on heaps of them back in my motor trade days at the local GH-H dealership.
One I would have liked though but never got the chance was a 1965 PB 3.3 Cresta English built imported one that was Met Black with red side flash outlined in chrome and it had a blood red leather bucket seat interior , 4 speed floor shift and O/D and also a factory warmed over engine. Man that thing could go, I coveted that car and did various servicing work on it back then. It was far better finished than the NZ assembled Velox models.
There were the odd few of them imported, I remember one in Christchurch years ago but in white with a blue flash on it.
