Gooday , my name is slim , I am chasing a set af venetians for a FC ute, and noticed in your photos a picture of a wrecked ute with a set :o :o. Any chance of a contact name or address, or is there a remote possibility of you returning there in the near future to acquire them for me, Im f***ing desperate to get a set. Even if there not the best or damaged ???         SLIM    P/S Did you reply to my post before about the same if so sorry to be a pest , but your the best leed I ve had, and ive actually seen them now and am very eager :o :o

Hi Brad, Yeah the white FC Ute has got some good stuff doors glass are ok but the photo shows it much better than it is.The back section is us. I can go back any time to salvage the parts.

Slim ,that is the ute that I emailed you about. We only had a couple of hours to get anything, so we are going back when the farmer finishes harvest in the new year. Will get the blinds for you then. When he rang me I was told there was only a couple of wrecks that I could salvage and that they were in poor condition. When we arrived after 4 hours there were about 30 vehicles to get parts from, most of them Holdens.
Also I had a look at an EK Ute on the weekend and the back windows are a couple of inches smaller in width than an FC. That is why they have the curved venetions.    

Cheers Gary

Gary,

here's a link to a few more shots I took on Sunday...most of the FC ones didn't work too well, ended up too dark...the yellow one called 2Brite was an excellent specimen...

you can see I admired the 50's Chevs as well as the pink '57 Caddy.....mmmmm......

Hi Harko,

Just thought I should point out that the "wreck shots" were actually FE_UTE's....he's the one with access to the "goldmine".....
