          Having now sold our house, this car lounge needs to find a new home. Perfect chrome, paint & upholstery. Lights up as shown. Cannot fit it into our new Unit.  Professionally built by the team that completed all my Restorations.

                                         Located in Ballina NSW.  Bargain Price $6000.   [present cost 3x that amount].   Has to go ASAP.   Contact via this Forum. Kevin.

  Let me take you through the process of building one of these items.
                Steps:    1. Locate an FE car [minimal rust], before the crushers find it!  [$........]
                             2. Transport it to your shed to be dismantled..[$.......]
                             3.  Find a Panel Shop Prepared to undertake the task.  They Cut the rear end out, you dispose of the rest of the vehicle  [...........]
                             4.  They attend to the rust & prepare the body for paint.[$..........]
                             5.  They build the steel frame for the lounge to sit on & fix it in place.[$..........]
                             6.  You find the b/bar, overriders, tail light surrounds etc locate an electroplater to make them "new again".[$................................]
                             7.  Purchase the FE special script, tail light lenses, globes etc [$...........]
                             8.  When the shell is painted, transport it to a Motor Trimmer to make & fit the seat etc  [$...........................................................]
                             9.  Back to your shed, or the Panel Shop for the final fit up which includes the wiring for he tail lights. [$....................]
                             10. Having remembered to polish the rear window s/steel surround, the finish is @ hand. Transport it to the final resting place. & then when you decide to move to a new address, offer it for sale @ FOR & $6000!!!!!!!
