Guys,

It poured all weekend in Sydney so the detailing of the van wasn't completed, although the work undertaken so far looks fantastic... the paint shall be mirror-like once completed.

I'll update this thread once the detailing is complete,

Regards

Edward

Ed,
        I'm now out of contention for the purchase of the van ........my partner Jenni, being too impatient ::), and true to her nickname "Ditzy" :P,  went and splashed her cash on another classic car on Wednesday, so our plan to purchase your van is now defunct :(.

Thanks for your time on the phone the other day and good luck with the sale ;),

Cheers

Mark

We were still working at 12.30am this morning, but here is a preview of the exterior:



I also found some old images of the interior. Only differences are that the Air Chief radio and Wisconia gauges are not included, and I have replaced the gear change knob with an authentic FC once.

The hoodlining and windlacing are tired, however I can supply an excellent second-hand wagon hoodlining, which can be used to make a new cabin lining for this car. (Panel vans do not have headlining in the cargo area.) Windlacing is readily available.

My plan was to do the headlining, windlacing, new windscreen (existing is scratched from wiper blades) and seal (without the stainless trim), and repaint the dash as one project.

I forgot to mention that the steering column has a Nasco gear lever lock fitted.



The dash surround is an FE, however I can supply a FC one with the car inclusive of a reproduction shroud for a few extra $ if required.



The price includes the original door trims which are repairable, although not perfect. The vinyl needs to be mounted on new boards and a couple of small tears glued up. They are a deeper red than the ones shown in the photo.

As you can see the seat is from a Special, and although comfortable and well boltered, has quite faded vinyl.

Basically the car is very sound and well presented, and I can supply most of the components to make it even more original if that is what a purchaser desires.

I hope this provides a better insight into the car. Final polishing is happening tonight.

Regards

Edward

Looks very nice, I have shown the wife and she likes what she sees also.  Where in NSW are you situated?

And what would be the lowest you would go in price, as we have to factor in transport and rego costs to our finances.  Look forward to your reply and hope maybe something can be worked out.

Also did you go to the nationals and was the car there at all.

Paintman,

Thank you. It's not a show car, but it is very presentable as a daily driver.

I'm in Sydney.

Yes, the price is negotiable.

Yes, I was at the Nationals, but not with this car.

Call me if you wish to discuss the car further.
