They're not as rare as FC Business Sedans, but they're still comparatively uncommon.  Have a read of this thread ($2) and this one ($2).

So you reckon this FC-215 could be a Torque Converter, eh?

Sorry, couldn't resist. ;D

Looks like a lot of work repairing the bog.
Hope you find the FC that suits.
Good luck with the chase.

If it's of any use, my fc is the same colour & interior scheme as this fc would have been originally. Look under Jodstars FC standard wagon in this section. ::)

       Just a quick question. If you have so many projects on the go that you had to sell of a your fbFB/EK sedan. Why are you looking for another project to start? Should you not finish off the others first.

Cheers

Yeah Alex
            I hear there is no cure for that Flu but many people have spent thousands of dollars searching for one. Only to find that it's infection spreads. ;)

        I hope you are putting this sort of thing on the FB/EK site as well, as I am sure that if some body starts the others will follow and one day that site may be like this one for FE/FC. ALSO could you start a topic on FE/FC and not end up on FB/EK and start resizing any of your pics of FE/FC as I am running out of time scrolling from one side of the screen to the other to see if you have anything to say about FE/FC rather than the usual FB/EK. >:(

Ret I know that this forum has always been a little on the leaniant side but can we draw the line some where. I two have a EK sedan but on this forum its FE/FC forum I try and stay in the boundrys of it. >:(


Cheers
Sarge.
