ANyone else recall that show "Jeopardy", the one with the bunch of Scottish kids trecking round the great southern land in a Kombi and running from the authorities... used to be on ABC a few years ago. 🙂

If so, you will recall that Rusty eventually met his demise tumbling sideways down a hill and was last seen in the shgow looking rather bent on the back of a tilt-tray.

I'm curious to know what became of Rusty after the show... anyone seen it round their local tip/wrecker/scrap metal yard at any stage?

I've been doing my head in wondering what became of it hehe 😂

Oooooooooook.... so I take this to mean that the mangled remains of Rusty have vanished off the face of the earth? 🙁

Looks like im destined to be forever mentally unstable! :duh 😂

Just for the record... it was ya typical crappy backpacker kombi... Sopru poptop, crappy white paint... dumb designs all over it including i think a big crappy picture of australia on the left side and crummy eyelashes and smiley face... and last I saw it driving in the show, had one orange rim after they changed a flat tyre.

whereever it is, it came out of the show looking very bent ang sorry after being tthrown down a hill :duh
