Ah. Ce n'etait pas du tout un mystère.

It seems that only several images of this manufacturer's cars could be found, but what is the story behind these names? Maybe anyone knows? Thank You!

As far as I can understand the Arcadipane was the design company that provided Australian manufacturers with design studies, right?

mainly associated with holdens but a stylist who made a name and consultancy of himself - maybe the first australian to do so ...this one - i had not seen before - looks to be merely a finessed hatchback torana or sunbird (hope not, those opel bits were not well liked) so it should have had a 5.0 V8.
i think peter A. went to england, dont know if he came back. i'm not sure he didn't have some input into the  at least the hero car in mad max - i'm probably deluded though

bumping thread after reading Motor magazine at checkout - mad max's car indeed down to the above-named; and he had worked for ford not holden, apparently.
