So that's where all the FE/FC utes have gone!  ;D

Great job, I like the Salmon EK one best.
Gives me ideas for mine, still not sure about colour yet, probably red with red/white trim.

G'day revhead,

They look great.  Looks like you've put some hours into those babies.

Where are you and what sort of $$ are you asking for the green one when finished?

Cheers,

Phil

Hey revhead,

They all look great, but that paddock-basher is sensational!  What patina! :o

cheers
RET

Edit:
PS - that's not meant to be a smart-arse comment.  Let me just make that clear before someone gets stuck into me for it.
I've no room inside the house for an old holden couch, and wouldn't be leaving one of the impressively upholstered ones outside either.  But the "park bench" style, I could see that under the pergola, for sure.

PPS: This is post #3000. You'd think I'd be a gun typist by now, eh?

thanks, the rusty one cost $50 and about 3 hours work. I sold it at shepperton swap meet last year, for $250.

looks real nice revhead, also looks like there is no shrtage of sitting space at your place.

my fave is the orange ute back with sedan bumper etc.

i was going to turn my ute cut into a trailer, now I think you've inspired me to make a lounge.

Cheers

Ed

you'd think there was no shortage of sitting space but i've sold them all.

only have the green one left.

enjoy making them but don't have the space to keep them.
