Put my wagon dreams on hold for a while as we have just had another baby.
I will be after one in the future and will keep visiting the site.
I was originally after an FE-FC wagon but couldnt find one, so i went for the next best thing.
I am sorry if it upset anyone, I was only looking for a car.????
Thanks
Dave

I have lost all my messages.

Thanks all.
I have been meaning to get to the local FE FE club meeting, it is 5 mins from my house, but keep forgetting.
I WILL be at the next one.

EffieC, not really got a good budget but willing to give it a go doing the work myself, just sold a kombi that took me 4 years to do so it cant be too differant.
I am searching through the posts to check on some ideas.
One thing, if I fit the HR front, what do I do with the steering, does it bolt to the original one or do I have to fit another.

Cheers
Dave

Sorry but more questions.
i have just read a post regarding HQ brakes.
What is the best set up for discs and approx cost, If you fit the commodore ones will they bolt on? if they bring the wheels ina bit will this cause them to scrape ?
How hard is it to fit power steering.
As I said I have loads of questions and I would like some ideas on what I can and cant do before I get my elusive wagon.
I would like it to handle, stop and drive something like a modern car and be safe enought to carry the family.

I am fairly new to this site, I havent even got a Holden yet, I am looking for a wagon or station sedan in either FE, FC, FB or EK and as I am new to Holdens I was wondering if there was anyone who can help me with some advice.
I am thinking of fitting a disc front end for saftey reasons, I can get a HR front, do they just bolt in?
What do I have to do to the rack ect?
I am also thinking of fitting a 186 as I have been told they are better than the 202, is this right and will it also just bolt in.
How expensive is it to fit a 3.8 V6, from a commodore, I have heard of the kits from the Rod Shop?
If I find a non auto such as a FE FC,how hard is it to fit a trimatic and is this the way to go for an auto.
As I mentioned I am a complete novice, It didnt take me long to work out my old kombi with the right advice and thats what I am after.
I understand some might have differant opinions but I would like to hear them all.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Cheers

Whens the next run, i would like to watch it go by.

Cheers
Dave

Sounds O.K and at the right price,
Shame its a bit too far away.

Cheers
Dave

I was just wondering how rare they are, does anyone know how many Station Sedans or wagons were made in FE, FC, FB and EK.

Cheers
dave

I will post it anywhere that I think I might have a chance of getting one, nothing like asking as many people as possible, I even asked on the VW site.

Cheers
Dave

Funny you should say that as when I bought the kombi it had been sitting in a shed for 20 years as it had an engine fire and was all rusty in the back.
It still had soot on the windows.

Sorry but I cant resist, I know this is a Holden site but heres a pic of my kombi.
A buyer arrives today from Tasmania to pick it up.



Cheers
Dave

Sorry forgot to add, that I was originally after an earlier one like an FC but they seam really hard to find, so I thought an FB or EK would be a better bet.

Cheers
Dave

So Stinky,
Any chance of passing some leads for any others you know of around Adelaide???
By the way, it looks really nice.

Cheers
Dave

Its just that this is a more popular site and I know that some members have them or might know of one.

Cheers
Dave

I have just sold my kombi(for those that can remember it) and I will be after a wagon, I would like one in Adelaide or close to.
I really would like one that is complete or a part restored one.

I also know that quite a few people are after them but with a wife, a 3 year old and another due in 4 weeks I really do need the room that a wagon has.

Cheers
Dave

Stinky, any luck with the one in S.A.
I will also be in the market for one soon.

Cheers
Dave
