RET
OK I have loaded some more pics here
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v162/58feute/The%20Shed/
This is a private collection being added to all the time..The turquoise FX (TE-350) arrived in the shed this week
These cars have been hunted down from all over Aust and most have been transported back to WA by the owners themselves
Some of the cars are an ongoing resto and some have been finished over the last couple of years and get driven
The Black FX outside will be staying as is ...maybe the seats tears being repaired so they dont get any worse and the fuel pump being fixed so the fuel can can be removed from the engine bay
The seat frame in a couple of the pics is out of the rear of the Army ute..complete with the ute tailgate mechanism
We spent about 4 hours there and didnt see everything as there is a bucket load of spares and books ..and signs and paperwork
There are more cars at another location...the not so good ones waiting their turn ...maybe 20 or so FX/FJ's
One of the chaps there ..Wayne from Queensland took the No. 19 for a drive and then we couldnt get him out of the car !!! He just wanted to stay there and enjoy the moment 1/2 hour
Anyhow hope you enjoy the pics
Cheers
Gary
