thanks for the comments guys
the car has an interesting history, i purchased it at a clearing sale just outside of launceston in 1985, at that stage it was in a fair condition, 48000 miles on the clock and from what i know the car had only one owner who once he felt he needed a new car, used it around the farm to feed hay to the cattle, so the boot was full of straw and under the car was coated with mud, but once i got it home and clean it up and was in a reasonable condition, i , like alot of people starting out restoring a car thought it would take $1000 and 6 mths work, well it took from 1985 to 1992 and alot more than a $1000, i moved from tassie to melbourne and eventually joined the victorian club and went to the state title in adelaide a few years ago and was lucky enough to pick up best original fe, but since the car has not been out much particularly since the birth of our daughter, so if anyone out there is interested in a good low milage fe drop me a line

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?

i've seen alot of micro models on ebay lately of fe sedan's and utes, i realise these are nz made, but can someone tell me when the orginals were made??? and the current one's that are being sold have they been made recently or in the last 10 years
