Just looking at my old posts and realised I haven't updated it since last August, how slack am I! The car was finished in Dec and registered a week before Xmas. The only thing I had to do to pass the engineering was to move the top rear seatbelt mounts from the C pillar to the rear parcel shelf. Have done some 1000 miles in her so far and the only problem I had was with the cooling. Had to remove the single thermo fan and replace it with twin shrouded fans. All ok now. It is a pleasure to drive and goes and stops well. here are some final Photos

I've been honoured to drive this car; it's MORE than a pleasure to drive, and it goes, stops and handles much better than just 'well'...

Goodonya Jack!!

Looks great Jack! Well done! I noticed that you have the plates off your other FC on this one now, What are your plans for the other one?

Hello Keith, I sold the stocky some time ago to finance the finishing of the new one. I kept the plates as they were personal plates ( the rego no of my original FC back in the 70's ). Hope to catch up in Tassie, Cheers, Jack

I think I had this in the wrong spot Jack. Back in its rightful place now in the completed section.

Cheers.

This car looks awesome, I love it!

The old dragways reminds me of my childhood watching the older teenagers put them on anything that moved with a holden badge.

I wouldn't change a thing,let me know if you ever want to sell it. I would drop everything and be over in a flash! ;D :o

Cheers,

Craig
