very interesting photo, the real estate accountant agent is still in that spot today ! something's never change haha

thanks guys , i should have noted the car is totally free to me if i remove it from the property ! i can get sum sedans from a neighbouring property for free too , but as i understand it , doors etc are different ? i'm not after any show car by any standard & i dont intend to restore ! just keep the classic shape & well modenize the running gear , for an everyday driver  ..
i shall come to a club meeting & pick peoples brains out then   thanks for the imput so quick

hi i started useing this forum over a yr ago & at that stage i was just about to go on a farm hunt to find me an fe or fc , well i found a few gold mines which led me to bring home a 58 impala which has gone on to a new home now , another story ...
on another property i am able to get an fe ute that has no floor pan but seems pretty intact , but missing a few odds & ends ! i am really interested in aquireing this ute , if i get this ute , am i able to source out a new floor pan & after visiting alot of places it seems panels etc are very thing on the ground to get , can i get this stuff for this ute ? can i join the fe/c nsw club with out owning a going model ? sorry if this is alittle bit of an ask but i need to start asking questions sumwhere.

thanx guys..
i'm off on sunday . most of the properties are from hen i was younger i used to shoot bunnies on & the rest are relo related etc actually have quite a few located cars mostly utes allready to look at .
i built an 28 A model ford roadster pickup a few yr's ago & that was a basket case , but it still had rust in the usual places for that model.. a relo has got me onto an old wrecking yard near Tenterfeild which has been closed for the past 18 yrs ... should be interesting , i alwaze say i'm out to restore white lie's cant hurt can they....... & the rare spares catalogue idea .... ok i'm the stupid one for not thinking of it......
ive ownly got a hz van & a trailer , but if anyone needs me to keep an eye out for anything , dont hesitate to let me know...
Regards; Gav

i have not owned or played with a fe/fc holden before & i would like to know where all the usual rust spots on these models are ? i am off on a 3 week drive around country nsw / qld on a car hunt .... plenty of farms allready hooked up for me to explore on & i need to know what to look for ....
also is there any rare items i should be keeping an eye out for ?
Regards; Gav

hi there..
i have just spent the past week reading through this site & it seems no-1 has came up with a power steering conversion ! if i'm wrong please let me know!
but "but" i have played with many makes & models of cars over the yr's & one conversion i did a while ago , was useing a "TE - ford cortina 78/79" i presume the later model aswell , power steering rack to my LX torana hatchback ... very cheap & easy to get hold of
since i am going to go ahead with a commy v6 & 5 speed transplant in a fc van , i would love to hear from other people who r doing this swap ....
