Title: FE Special Post by: ekute on December 22, 2007, 09:25:36 PM Bought this a couple of months ago-came with louvred spats,beehive heater,door scratch plates,rear venetian,sun visor etc.Not much done to date apart from new brake wheel cylinders & hoses,kit in both master cylinders and new clutch slave cylinder.
Interior usable and floors and subframes etc great!Has FB motor and looks to be reco gearbox-runs well (hadn't been driven for 15 years). Plans are to set it up as 60s/70s style.

Title: Re: FE Special Post by: ekute on December 27, 2007, 09:49:00 PM Hi y'all,
The ute has a 308/trimatic,9" diff,HR f/end,Torana discs and front mounted r&p. Originally built by Ratbox on this and FB/EK forums,but full body strip paint/interior and reco lots of parts afterwards. There's a couple more pics on the other forum- look at page 5 of My FB/EK, under "My daily driver EK ute" and "More EK ute pics". Plans for FE are not as grand but will also cop the full strip thing then rebuild in 70s style with looooowering, whitewalls, hot grey etc. Mark |
