   Now I know what 12 bolts and screws to look for hopefully still in 1 container

re " subframe bolt bullets" I will give my son in-law a copy of your description, there is a machine shop at the job he is at, hopefully they can help.


Thanks for help

Thanks for your support and offers to help, just don't want to be a pain.
There is now no rust (100% rust free), no dents or any body work to do, had the motor bottom end completed by local old master mechanics, just need the head restored and updated at a later date.
But now i need to start fitting the front frame assy  ( what size bolts? ) i know i have the correct ones but markings are gone.
Once again your support and help is very much welcomed
regards
Rick

Hi All
I have a FC wagon and about to get back into a rebuild after some time off (about 4yrs) due to ill health. Although i took care in labeling, taking pics etc, time has played havoc on texta marking fading as well as memory fade
I have Workshop Manuals
Spare parts catalogues
Some pics, so the question is, apart from doing searches on this FC informative site on each individual area I get stuck on, are there any other tips books or manuals that can help me with reassembling
Looking forward to suggestions
Regards
Rick

Hi Nick
You have my attention, please let me know what you have and where you are

Rick

Great idea, well done

Thanks Ken

I guess that answer was coming my way, I just needed confirmation. A couple of years ago I saw a FC Sedan that was original with a second owner that has not been touched, when i had a look underneath it had a heavy coating of a tar based sound deadening paint which looked fantastic. He said that GMH did that on many FC's. I think it was a after market job not by GMH, but was not in a position to dispute.

Just wanted to make sure as it did look good.
