Are these genuine Nasco and as such worth $400 as apposed to the Rares versions at $75?

You fixed the hole in the bonnet yet Gary?

And got it licenced?

With the current delays in transport over to the west, I might have to take you up on that Stinky!!

The 08 Nats might also give me time to finish the wagon project. That would mean I'd have to leave the sedan at home .... choices, choices ... :o

All the best
Tim

Thanks Edward.

Andrew (and for others interested) the ute continues its journey around Australia and will be spending some quality time out west - in sunny Perth 8)

I run a black 202 with trimatic column shifter - however not EFI.

This link may be of assistance though-:

I have recently "invested" in an FC wagon project and fully intend on restoring the old girl but the question is where to start.

I have discovered that unfortunately the motor is not original, still grey but with a B prefix. Which is disapointing but leads me to my question on how stock is stock.

I have noticed that the Constitution and Rules of the Nationals for want of a better definition http://www.fefcholdenvic.org.au/images/PDF/natscons.pdf  in Clause 7 provides for a point scoring system for classing of a vehicle.

Under item 1 this would indicate that my engine is still classed as stock.

What does Item 7 "WHEELS - Chromed or mag, or tyres" mean?  If I put radials on instead of crossplys is this considered a mod?

In item 16 "PAINT WORK" does it matter what colour scheme I choose given the original colour is coded onto the ID plate or is any "normal Metalic" OK?

I know at the end of the day it's up to me what I do with my car - but I am interested in other peoples opinions!

Cheers
Tim

Very nice - what exactly is the colour combo there walks?

Robin,

Nice display board Rusty.

Couldn't help noticing a couple of bowling trophies and some batting ones. Wouldn't mind guessing that just like me you started with the bowling ones (bowling nude nuts - no doubt) and when you got older, fatter and generally lazier (like me) you started winning the batting ones (going the tonk!). ;D

Given that we own the same car - this is getting rather spooky.

PS the clock says 1pm yet your post was at 12:52pm - how do you do that then hey !!

Good on Rares for having a go at these things. ;D

However given recent debates about colours of Horn Caps and the like .. how are you going to decide / or can you enlighten us on what colour combination it is going to be ... ???

Tim

Eddie, thought I saw one on ebay.

Although I'm not overly encouraged by the fact that its sitting on an FB (or are they the same) Hope this helps.

Nice one Blacky!

I'll have the handle off the wagon tailgate next time you fly past!!

FE ute with an FC bonnet  ???

Cheers
Tim

Looks fantastic Les  :o

No doubt the red will fade (and the silver may even go gold ....), but the detail is excellent. Bring it on.

Tim

PS nice manicure there Ken

Any updates on this project Sarge?

And if it's not too late I'll have one.

Cheers
Tim
