ok   for those that dont know me i want 4 cars in total as i have 4 children, so when i go they get one each.
i have done 2 so this is the 3rd.



my mate bought the ute in the photo to wreck.
now i hope to be taking this one to mt gambier ::)so will see how it goes.

fe 229-750 a
trim 211-568
paint 256-7452
rpo 207-7457

front floor will need new pans,but the rest of the body looks ok,front sub frame will need abit of work as well.

good score, looks like it still has all the stainless trim intact too, first time ive seen wind deflectors on a FE wagon.

[minifcvan]

what a great score..

[customFC]

Sweet score.
Looks like a solid car to start with.
A bit of work ahead before Mt Gambier.
I wish you all the best with the project.
Regards

Thats a scarce one mate, FE Wagons are very thin on the ground, where did you find it.

Looks like a nice colour scheme too going by the seat colours, are you going to return it to it's original colour/s ?

Venetian shade package as well as wind deflectors!

Nice pick up!

Good luck with it, look forward to the progress pics Cheers, Gary

got it from Beaudesert (qld) and as for the colours well lets just say it wont be blue and white like to other 2,this one will be white and blue........got keep them all the same colours.

just 40, Have you cornered the market on blue & white paint  :)

You should break the mould with this one and paint it back to original.

Give it to your favorite offspring.

The FE 229 is a fairly scarce beast, do a search on the site.

Having said that I am sure what ever you do it will look good

Cheers, Gary

PS we got our FC Ambulance from Beaudesert, from under a blokes house!

[fc_mad]

nice new project

[Just40]

well all stripped down and time to get started.
i have it under the house for now,but the wife told me to get a shed out the back.
so i,ll look at getting a 2-3 car shed soon.

great score, especially with all the stainless.


Cheers

A belated welcome to the FE wagon owners' club, just40! 8)

[Just40]

well,new floors are in and found a good fuel tank that only needs a sender.but i had to make a bit more room,so i knocked out the back wall under the deck and now i get 4 cars in here.

but bless me father as i have sinned,my 4th car is a H/Q ute as i need a daily driver soon and this looked ok for my needs.

hope to be stripping the paint off the wagon next week.

[NES304]

AMEN

[Just40]

well its has been awhile since i have done some work on this wagon but its nearly ready for paint.
the roof was badly dented and also had to redo all floor pans.

John,
        You are really getting in there, maybe after this one you could finish mine for me!  Ha Ha.  Or maybe there is already something new in the pipeline?

if the weather holds we will be painting next weekend, this one will look a little different to when i first got her. ;)

[Just40]

got the undercoat on midweek.

and got the white laid down today.

will be doing the red on monday i hope.

[Just40]

well got the red on today, but the tail gate fell of the stool i had it on so thats the only thing that did not get done today.
i am thinking i will call this one QUEENSLANDER from now on,mmmm  it does look better than blue.  ;D ;D ;D

[Just40]

it has been awhile since my last post.


mind the dust but waiting for some rubbers to turn up then i can give it a wash.

[NosFEratu]

Coming together very nicely indeed!  :D
