Has been in the SA club quite a few years, Ken restored it before that.
Not sure it is still at collectable classics, It belongs to Robin who is downsizing his collection.

Cheers Stewy    Cool

Send me a personal message and we can discuss the car. I built it to the stage where it is now.

First question: Yes.
Second question: Yes.  But the second one's in pieces.

Remember: if your Holden's not leaking oil, it doesn't have any.

It's hard when you are on a budget and rely on strangers to inspect a car interstate for you.

Sydney must be the worst place for a decent priced car.

I don't now Ken personally, I presume he has restored more than 1 FC - FE.

I have been looking on facebook, people showing their cars recently bought but have never seen advertised for sale.
It is like an inner circle you have to know certain people to get first shot at buying a car.
Is this how it is or am i dreaming ?

The only problem is my body is no good, Don't think I could handle a full on project. Just want a survivor I can drive and fix things along the way.
Thanks anyway.

join a car club, donate a large sum to the club, the exco might let you know of a barn find.

There is some truth in that statement, not the bit about donating a huge some of money lol, but a lot of cars do get offered to car clubs at good prices. Most cars I have owned were bought through being offered to the FE FC club of VIC.
Elderly people especially don’t want to advertise on line, but prefer to contact a car club.
Call it a perk of volunteering to work at running a car club, or putting yourself in the right place at the right time.

 Could not agree more with that,  All the cars I have restored over 35+  years have "found me", usually via the Club or by "word of mouth". If you are after an everyday driver, then pay the going price & get on with it.  Kevin.
