Just wanted to share a few photos of a full custom FE/FC panelvan from the late 70's. International headlights and awesome murals that were popular at that time. Check out the cool use of swords for the grill and rear bumpers. ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/customfc/holden 1/FCVan1w.jpg) ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/customfc/holden 1/FCVan2w.jpg) ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/customfc/holden 1/FCVan3w.jpg) Seems to me that a custom of this quality would probably still be sitting in someones garage. It sure would be cool to stumble across something like this. Anyone (Qld?) know anymore about this car? Regards Alex

Alex, I have never seen this car at a show up here is Brissy, but surely it would still be hanging around.

Hi Guys My name is Shane Martin.... I painted the custom murals on this car back around 1976-77 for a guy named Des Noyse from Mt Gravatt in Brisbane. The car was called "Noysemaker" and won top custom paint that year or the next at the Indooroopilly Hot Rod and Custom Show. Just came across these pics while doing a search for a fc fe grille for a mate, and would love to know if anyone had any further news on the car or the original owner Des. cheers

Hey Shane. Nice work on the murals. I heard that Des still has the van tucked away in his garage. Can't be certain of this fact though. Regards Alex

Hey Shane No, he isn't on this forum. The pics I posted years ago were sent to the NSW club by Des when he was trying to sell the car. (maybe 20+ years ago now) A mate of mine in Qld mentioned that he believes that Des couldn't find a buyer at the time, so he parked it, and he still has it. I can't confirm if this is just legend or fact though. If you find out, please let us know. Do you have any pics of the car?
Regards Alex
