Title: Workshop Manual for FC?
Post by: Ken's 57 on April 05, 2005, 04:56:32 AM
Could someone tell me whether the FC had its own complete workshop manual or was there only an FC supplement to the FE manual? I've seen several FE manuals floating around but never an FC. Then again, maybe I'm not too observant. Thanks.

Ken ???

Hey Ken.
Yes there is a complete manual for the FE and FC combined.
Here is some pics to help you identify which is which.

       These days they do make a series1 and then make a series 2 with all the problems fixed or most of them anyway. This is because everybody is in such a hurry to just get their product out there and the money coming in. In the ealier days they took their time do it once do it right. But some fool though to themself's:-

" Shit this FE Holden is good but I can make it better and I will call it the FC"

In 1959 the same person was heard to say:-

" How could I have been such a fool, thinking I could improve on perfection. I think I will start all over and call it the FB as we all know the FC is no match for the FE".


:P :) ;) :D ;D :P
