FE-FC Holden Discussion Forum

just a few questions about trax models, i notice they don't seem to publish how many of a particular model are made??? does anyone have a rough ball park figure of how many they do made of each model????

and my second question when are they going to bring out the fe model???? ??? 8)

RE trax models I emailed trax about 2 weeks ago to ask about producing a fe and the email I received back was to keep my eyes open. What we all should do is keep sending emails or phone them requesting that they bring them out

I heard more than a year ago that the blue/white and 2t-green FCs where definitely going to be the last of them, because the mould was going to be broken down for use in FE models.

Apparently they've been asked about FEs ever since the FC was first released, and the success of that model shocked even Trax.

Hi guys I was talking to Ken at our xmas run and they are definitely doing the Fe. He also  suggested what colors would be the best for the models So hang in there they shouldn't be to much longer

I also asked about an Fe Van and the reply was to keep posted.

Jason.  :D

Blue and white with flames and Tilli's stripe?  ;D ;D ;D

I cant even remember the 6 colour schemes which I sent them now.
There was Castle Grey with Gypsy red roof
Cuban Beige with Russet brown roof
Elk blue with Teal blue roof
Sarasota white with Turquoise roof

cant remember the rest

Maybe there was White and Blue with flames  :D

Ken,

I know it must of been an honest mistake but you seem to have missed Corsair Tan and India Ivory.

Cheers,

Craig.


 ;) ;) ;)

I'm sure that's no mistake.

Don't foreget a  all grey fe in the series 8) 8) 8) 8)

Ouch. :P

Don't worry Wayne, if you get one half way along the production line it will be grey - I'm sure that's the primer colour ;D

Craig at least they all start out in a good colour.
  That is why they picked my car for the magazine because it was  the best colour.  :P :P :P :P

I rang trax to ask them when fe is to be produced and they said it should be later this year.I would not hold your  for it  ???

Ken you told me that you asked them to do a twin pack with the 2 colours reversed Tan with white roof and white with tan roof.  I think that is pretty close to becoming an Fe Poo mobile

could we have the tan with a white roof and detroit flash? this would just about make my life complete.

 :-/     awww    Ken ,    No  "chrome Yellow"  ;D

Actually the tan one that I sent them details of was Pueblo Tan not Poo Tan

I suggested a twin set with reversed colours as Trax have not done it before and in FE the Pueblo Tan and Castle Grey sedan was sold quite extensively in both versions.

I note in Qld Club's July newsletter that they have a raffle with first prize "your choice of one of the Six Trax model cars (FE/FC)."  There must be an  FE model.   Mike.

Hi All
My first question is: Why the hell would you break up an FC mold, that is/was one of the best selling models in there range.

Next question if you going to make an FE why grey? is it a colour, and then to suggest an FE Poo. You blokes need to have a long hard look at yourselves?. ;)

Now on the serious note I bet Trax are sick to death of all you FE FC nutters ringing and nagging. ;D

I would also like to say I think the FE will most likely make it into there top 10 sellers of all time. We all know the best and No 1 seller of all time will always be the FC.

Excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me Jim!  It's not just the blokes that love Poo cars......  ;D

Cat

 :D :DThat's right CAT - besides I own a poo mobile FE and I love her!! ;D :) ;) :D ;D

Now Now Girls..
Poo might look fine on an FC with white, but really a two tone poo FE, you girls are joking.

Just Joking.......

Has the FE series been released as yet and if not when will it happen.

2 FEs have already been released a couple of months ago now .TR40B Cabot grey/Gypsy red roof . TR40c shoreline beige/dueblo tan roof.

QuoteNow Now Girls..

Jim you are playing with fire stiring the ladies up.

Hi John
I think Cat and Hotlips were trying to bait me so I had to respond.

I might have to see if any FE models are available. I have not checked Trax site for a couple of months now I suppose.

I might buy one or two for prosperity as I will never own a real FE. lol

 Hi All
Just went in the trax website and had a look. Yes they are there and they do not look to bad at all. I will be ordering them both real soon.

There have actually been 3 FE's released. The 2 tone blue one was released at the same time as the others but has sold out.
Regards
Alex

Now really Jim why would Kathy and I want to bait anyone?!  We all know that Poo is the best colour in the whole universe so what's there to bait about?!  ;D

And if ret thinks he can come back with a quip about a 'mass to bait' then he's got another thing.......coming.......tee hee.....sorry, sorry sorry!  :P

Tr40A is the SOLD OUT , two tone Blue FE by Trax.   Ive got no complaints about CATs , MAS TO BATE Topic !  :o

I've got nothing to add to the shit-stirring, so to speak... ;)

I picked this Trax model up recently for $10 with no tyres and put a huge set on the rear , It looks tubbed now , Dig the NASCO Livery , I DO . Wonder what the FC Van would look like with NASCO Livery .

Slim,

If you'd really like to know, take a side-on shot of your FJ van (preferably with the flash turned off), and a shot of your van (with no shadows on it) from the same angle.  Send 'em to me and I'll mock it up for you.

cheers
