[trent]

Oh and do you have any more pic's of it and what year is it.
Cheers Trent.

[RET]

Trent,

It's painted in a 1958 scheme, so presumably it's of that vintage.  The colours appear to be Olinda Green over Adobe Beige.

The details of the different FC colours schemes are in our Tech Info area.

cheers

Thanks Ken,
You confirmed what ret said,im curious because i owned an exact car about 20years ago thort is may be still around sold it in sydney when i was living there.
Cheers Trent.

Very unlikely.  I have owned 3 FCs that were Olinda Green and Adobe Beige in my time (although one was a wagon).  It's one of the most common colour combinations.

Perhaps I should say "popular", not "common".  Don't want to upset anyone ;)

cheers

G'day Trent
                Sorry about the delay in the reply. Ken is spot on the mark, and he would know more about my fc than i would. As far as i can make out from my id plate it is the original paint scheme,however i am sure when i brought the fc Rob told me the car was repainted several years back. I havent any more photos at the moment as i have been very busy and dont even get the time to drive her much, but the times i have has been great and  the only thing that has let me down is the generator so with a little bit of help from another thread that John M posted about generator to alternator conversion i will be able to rectify that problem (thanks John ) Other than that it has been a dream to drive.

I was wondering Ken if i supplied you with all my fc's details you could tell me a bit more about its history and any other details you have would be great as i think you may have a bit more info on the old girl  than me.


Cheers deajenn
