I'm trying to work out the year some photo's were taken in Darwin and so far
the only thing we narrow it down to is "what's the most modern car in any of
the photo's". Of the pictures we have the attached link is to the one that
has the youngest car's in. There's a Falcon and a Holden that look to be
either XR/XT and HD/HR.

Can anyone give a better identification of either?

Which means circa 1968, probably.

Looks like a HR Special Sedan and the wagon's definitely an XT as XR's never
had the black strip moulding across the tailgate. Early to mid 1968 at the
minimum.
