Title: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: craiga on July 22, 2007, 09:14:35 PM WTB: Number plate surrounds, the plain type, similar to the front ones where the rear has the with Holden Script.
(http://www.fefcholden.org.au/techinfo/nasco/trimstyle/images/easifitframe.jpg) Like this one, but no Holden script. Need a pair in good to excellent usable condition. Thanks, Craig. Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: REDMR2RED on July 22, 2007, 10:16:19 PM Hi Craig, a pair of number plate surrounds one with the Holden script went for over $200 on ebay just last week.
There was also a pair at the VIC FE FC Auction that went for $150 on Friday night. Kevin Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: craiga on July 23, 2007, 07:11:09 AM Thanks Kevin, don't want or need the Holden script, just the plain type.
These were sold aftermarket during the 60's and 70's - I've noticed that lots of mid 70's cars have them. I already have a set on my FC sedan but now I need them to complete my XU1. Cheers, Craig. Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: craiga on July 27, 2007, 11:36:48 AM Bump.
Can anyone help with these? Here is a picture of the ones on my FC sedan. This is what I am looking for. (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t167/70XU1/numberplate.jpg) Thanks, Craig.

silly me kept the brand new dealers plate frames to stash away (plastic early-mid 90's) when i should have been taking home the old aluminium ones we were braking up. Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: craiga on July 28, 2007, 09:27:33 AM Beevee, thanks but I'm keen, but not that keen!!!
Quote That could be too high a price for Craig to pay... Grin LOL RET. Mmmmmm, ALMOST Gary, FE's are the most beautiful and well designed of the early Holden's, even the dust collecting horizontal speaker grill is a work of art, along with the stone attracting front mounted bonnet emblem. ;D And what about the sun glare prone uncovered instruments, now there's another exceptional design feature. ;) Is that enough nice things???? If you're keen to sell, I'm keen to buy. You have my promise that at next weeks All Holden Day I'll walk straight past the FC's and pour out my love for the FE. P.M me or call 0407 321 600 if I passed the test!! Cheers, Craig. Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: craiga on July 29, 2007, 09:08:27 PM Have now sourced the parts required.
Thanks Gary. I LOVE FE HOLDENS Title: Re: WTB: Number Plate Frames Post by: colt on July 29, 2007, 09:12:15 PM Craig, good to see you've seen the light.
