EffCee has an FC

Another update,

i have had my head down bum up at work this week so I haven't made a lot of progress, I will be getting the HR front and Rear end out of the other car in the next week or so so that  can dismantle them, replace what needs replacing, clean them up and get them ready for paint.

will post some photo's soon

If the man won't post photos then there is nothing for it other than to go and take the photos yourself.  Watch this post Sunday evening - the FCarazzi are on their way to Keith's garage. 8)

The days are getting longer but a cold breath is in the air, the henchmen are stirring. :o ::) :D :D

Yes, possibly the henchmen known as the ACT club!  The army multiplies!  ;D

Beware boys (and girls) Keith has a chainsaw and he's not afraid to use it!  :o

I can see it now - Keith protecting his car wielding a chainsaw while wearing his welding helmet!  :o :o :o  :D

The ACT club dropped in on Keith during our mystery run today.  Thanks for the hospitality and the chance to have a close up look at your car and set up.  Here is a snap, that reveals there has been a hold up on progress lately, but you can't be crook and rebuilding a car all at the same time!



Gentle encouragement is all that is required. Oh and Mrs EffCee failed in her attempts to simply swap one of the club member's FC for Keith's shell - she may be wishing for a magic wand for Christmas though.

Now Keith, how about adding a picture of the car cover that dropped in recently.  Very nice work by someone (you know who you are).

Cheers
David

This one?  ;)

At Orange, custom car covers are going to be the big thing....
Several cars are already in the running for the Top Custom Car Cover Award, Keith's is just one of them.
Be warned - competition will be fierce...

[NosFEratu]

C'mon - back on track Jack! :D

Yes David, unfortunately he's suffered some set backs but, hopefully, Keith's now fighting fit and ready to tackle his project.  I'm sure we'll see some (non-prompted of course) updates in the near future!  :D

Them's a coupla mighty big exhaust pipes waiting to be used under the car Keith!  ;)

An FC cover on an FE?

Maybe the world really is facing armageddon......

[jack_fc]

hey Paul, I noticed that also, but thought it politic not to mention       ::) ::) ::)

you may think the tyranny of distance is your protector...

[NosFEratu]

And it's undergoing psychotherapy as a result in an effort to restore it's dignity!

As David has stated the ACT FE-HR club came and paid me a visit as part of their mystery tour day. The club members have been very welcoming as I have recently joined the club. The members have some great cars which I have shown below,

Colin's FE


David's FE


Kaz's FC


Julius's EH


Scott's FB


Graham's HR


David's HD


Sandra (Mrs EffCee), my wife had to show off the car cover that I have been given by Kathi (NosFEratu) when Kathi and John came and visited recently. Just about anyone who has set foot in our house since we received it has been shown the cover. I feel extremely privileged to have received such a gift, and my sincere thanks to Kathi for the car cover. It has become a very much treasured item.

The cover's proper place is on the car when it has been finished and I am looking forward (and I am sure Kathi is too) to seeing it on the car when it is completed.

Now all that remains is for me to get on with it....

Aaw shucks - I'm gettin' a little embarrassed :-[  I'm glad you and, obviously, Sandra like it - even with it's appendix scar!  ;)  And yes, it definitely belongs on your EffCee! 

Looked like it was a good turn out of some very nice cars from the ACT club - but I'm still a little upset that they didn't come to my place for a mystery run!  ;)

Keith & Sandra,
Thanks so much for your hospitality and the chance to have a look at your car. We had a lot of fun on the Mystery run yesterday (Thanks to David for organising the run).

One minor correction (so I don't get into trouble), the HR is not mine (unfortunately), it's my son Baydon's. We took his car on the run because it's the only old car we had at home. The FC and EH are both over at Mum & Dad's place at the moment, while Baydon's painting a VL Commodore at home.

We had a bit of a "Bumper weekend". On Saturday, Dad was doing some work on the brakes on his 48/215. He forgot that the brakes weren't working when he moved it back in the shed.........He used my FC to stop! Luckily not too much damage, we'll just have to replace/repair the centre section of the FC rear bumper bar & the front overriders on the 48. Then during the run yesterday, Jeff accidentally reversed into Julius' EH. No damage to jeff's towbar, but as can be seen in the pics, Julius needs a new right hand front bumper section.

Cheers,

Graham
