Post by: kustomkitten on January 12, 2006, 09:58:01 PM
Hi everyone,

Im after custom bubble skirts for my ek, I have contacted Paul from smooth cruisin, but his phone # has since been disconnected. (0732875900) If someone knows how I can get in contact with him again  please let me know! Or if you know of anyone else that makes custom spats for ek's?

Thanks,
Renee

I think John's Rod and Justom in Melb has them, he lists them for FC Holden. Worth a phone call.

Otherwise, Craig C (Flames) on the Cruizin board had a set for sale -

i know its an fc, but these spats are ofcourse to suit fe-ek. if they are what your looking for, they are made by johns rod and customs. i contacted johns rod and customs not long ago and price was infact $300 with all of the clips and brackets.

hopefully that helps  ::)

Yeah thats what im after, my husband just rang johns and he said they wont fit :'(
We rang the guy from smooth cruisin about 2 weeks ago and he said he had them and would send em down with his mate for us to collect but his number is now disconnected.
I really want them, but where the hell will I get em?

Hey Renee.
Good to hear that you scored your skirts from Paul.
A much better product than others on the market by all accounts.

Hey Harko,

My husband brought my ek from a guy in Arncliffe just before Christmas last year. He had it sitting under a carport for 5 yrs. My husband did some minor repairs and I got it registered. Its originally a VIC car. We have the original  books and other info on it. Including a photo of the car in 1966 with the ladys puppy.
If you know anything about the car, would be nice to know.
PS Your car is C :) :)L

:) :)ALEX, is that your car? we see it around our area a fair bit, in Narellan NSW :) :) Its very  C :) :)L too!

Renee, does Smooth Cruisin do the FE/FC ones and would you know how much, or do you have the guy's contact details?
Cheers

Thanks Alex, I think I prefer the JR&K(?) units as fitted to Harko's car.
