Great looking car, Scotty.
Photos are a bit deceptive, car looks to be blueish not grey.
Distinct Mid 1959 Car  > After Vic: June 1959 (by paint code), but before indicator lights went orange October 1959
Haysheds are great places for storing cars, unless there is a bush fire.

Really interesting pics Scott. Nice colour scheme too! Almost up there with Teal over Elk Blue ;) Do you know any of the car's history?

Cheers...Ken

mcl1959

Geoff, according to rego sticker it's a November car - I think it says 20th on the expiry date.  If you look closely at the clear indicator it appears the orange may have faded out. Scotty will be able to tell us later if their is a globe in the lower socket.

It certainly is a great find though - that's 3 cars found in Vic in the last 4 weeks out of barns/sheds
It never rains but it pours!

I can't believe they are still out there, but I love it when they're uncovered!!
Great find Scott!!
I bet you can't wait to move all that crap, pop the doors and have a good look at the interior!!

Awesome pics!!

Cheers

Great find Scott, so what are your plans for the old girl?

Dean.

Devilrod

Good stuff Scotty, at least you know what it will look like if you plan on running centrelines ;)
Although I'm guessing no v6 for yours..... Fluffy will be curious.
Speed & Style...... One Day I'll get the speed bit!

GOA350

G'day everyone,
                     Dean, I intend to clean it up to see what its really like. Then redo the mechanicals, brakes , ect, and get it to a roadworthy condition then put it on club rego and go criusing. I dont want to get too fussy with it otherwise it will never get finished (ask devilrod how long it takes when you start to pull too many things apart) besides, its only an FC  ;D ;D now if it was an FE it may be a different story, he he ;D. 
    I'll keep everyone posted on the old BALES(oh i mean, GIRLS) progress now that i can get photos up on the forum. Stay tune for the photos of her first criuse since 1979,
                       Cheers for now

So Scotty... have you got a tractor yet to shift the Hay Bales??? When do we see some more pics without 28 years of dust?

BTW - we nearly have our Ute on the road.... hope to get it registered in time for the Vic Club Weekend run to the Grampians in a month's time. Getting extractors & 2" exhaust fitted tomorrow  :) VASS next..

Cheers,
Trevor & Chris.
