Crumpsnr's old cars

Hi all,
I promised a while ago I'd post pics of cars I've built in the past. Here goes.

The FJ I bought before I had my licence, then rebuilt it.
The FC Special sedan was next. I put a red motor and Sigma 5 speed in it with HR discs and rack and pinion.
The FE ute is the last one I did. It had a fully blueprinted red motor with all synchro 3 speed and limited slip diff. The gearbox was a gift from the local wreckers because they couldn't sell it at the time. It took a flogging with no probs. It was
so fast it was dangerous. I refused to sell it to one kid who came around with his dad when I had it for sale.
The outback photo is on the Hay plains. I topped up with fuel from a jerry can then got a picture of how there was nothing for miles. Walked around the
car and fell arse over tit on the jerry can. Laid there on the ground pissing myself laughing at how funny it must have looked. I drove it to
Adelaide to the Formula 1. Drove it back in 1 day, kept going quicker the closer I got to home!
The line of old cars was when I got asked to use it with the Early Model Holden Club in Nowra to accompany the Olympic flame when it came through.

Here's an ad Westpac did with the FJ just after I sold it. It was on the back of Unique Cars.  I shoulda been proud but all I could think of at the time was "If you knew how many hours it took to get that friggin' guard straight you'd throw sticks at that bitch for sittin' on it".

I must say that even though they look OK in the pics I shudder to think of some of the dumb things I did that helped partly ruin some good cars. Part of the learning processI guess.
