Title: FC collection Post by: FC P/VAN on January 21, 2009, 08:09:57 AM just wanting to find out if anyone out there has a personal collection of FE/FC holdens including 1 of each body style???
i am just a ute away from sedan, van (x2) and wagon to complete my "series" if i can manage to source a 3 door wagon also that would be the absolute perfect collection i feel. cheers Title: Re: FC collection Post by: Rabbitoh on January 21, 2009, 08:22:22 AM Yes, I am the owner of a 'full house' of FE's- two are registered, two are under restoration ;D.

i will try get a few pics of my collection tonight (not real sure how to post them on here though) sedan is a special all white with grey flash, re/black interior (registered,complete and drivable but going to get full resto) wagon is 2 tone green, mainly dark with lighter flash, green/black interior, 98% complete, needs plug leads, fan belt and a few small wiring issues sorted for headlights etc in engine bay. P/Van no 1 is a bare shell in need of full resto ( this is to become the hearse) have most parts to complete but wont be original, have 6.0 and 6 speed, 20" wheels and leather ss electric seats already to be fitted. p/Van no 2 is 100% original with camp seat and wilsonia gauges fitted, 99.9% rust free 100% complete and ready to use (this is my favourite, but recently had been offered a good amount for it from another member on here, not too sure what to do) if only i could find a ute that was complete but in need of full resto hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........... Title: Re: FC collection Post by: Rabbitoh on January 21, 2009, 10:03:47 AM Thanks for that.
In my humble opinion you will regret selling panel van 2, the moment you do the deed- you have been warned ;D. Re: uploading pics- just go to photobucket and upload them onto their site, then copy the image string and paste into your post here. Do a search on this site about 'loading images' if this is still unclear (others have explained it better than I can). Good luck on the quest for a ute 8) Title: Re: FC collection Post by: ridgey_didge on January 21, 2009, 10:49:19 AM I can do it in model cars, if that counts? But, alas, no where near in real cars, and never likely to be.
Cheers David Title: Re: FC collection Post by: FC P/VAN on January 21, 2009, 11:08:51 AM I have the thought of getting all my cars ready over the next 1-2 years and would love to use them for my wedding that my now currently girlfriend (soon to be proposed to this feb) knows nothing about,
