just wanting to find out if anyone out there has a personal collection of FE/FC  holdens including 1 of each body style???

i am just a ute away from sedan, van (x2) and wagon to complete my "series"

if i can manage to source a 3 door wagon also that would be the absolute perfect collection i feel.

cheers

Yes, I am the owner of a 'full house' of FE's- two are registered, two are under restoration ;D.

very nice collection,
i will try get a few pics of my collection tonight (not real sure how to post them on here though)

sedan is a special all white with grey flash, re/black interior (registered,complete and drivable but going to get full resto)
wagon is 2 tone green, mainly dark with lighter flash, green/black interior, 98% complete, needs plug leads, fan belt and a few small wiring issues sorted for headlights etc in engine bay.
P/Van no 1 is a bare shell in need of full resto ( this is to become the hearse) have most parts to complete but wont be original, have 6.0 and 6 speed, 20" wheels and leather ss electric seats already to be fitted.
p/Van no 2 is 100% original with camp seat and wilsonia gauges fitted, 99.9% rust free 100% complete and ready to use (this is my favourite, but recently had been offered a good amount for it from another member on here, not too sure what to do)

if only i could find a ute that was complete but in need of full resto     hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........

Thanks for that.
In my humble opinion you will regret selling panel van 2, the moment you do the deed- you have been warned ;D.
Re: uploading pics- just go to photobucket and upload them onto their site, then copy the image string and paste into your post here.
Do a search on this site about 'loading images' if this is still unclear (others have explained it better than I can).
Good luck on the quest for a ute 8)

I can do it in model cars, if that counts?  But, alas, no where near in real cars, and never likely to be.

Cajerridoc in SA has all 14 FE and FC's which is going to be hard for anyone to beat.
There are 3 different sedans, 2 different wagons a van and a ute of each model making 14.

Hey ridgey-didge, do you have an FC Ute in a model car?  If so, can you still get them?
