Title: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: cajerridoc on November 21, 2009, 05:55:08 PM Well, you have asked for photos, but as I don't have the car yet this is all I can show you as it is all I have seen! The add has a few errors in it but basically it is an FE van with windows and a fancy kit of some kind on the side. I believe it is a couple of shades of green with a white flash but that was over a week ago so don't quote me. Robin (http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/cajerridoc/FE2104-2123-A003.jpg) Here are some more numbers: FE2104-2123-A TRIM 6-683 (COMET BLUE) PAINT 256-7449 (CABOT GREY) RPO 333 Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: zulu on November 21, 2009, 08:13:04 PM Thats very close to our FE Van Robin, must have been pretty close on the production line, our numbers are FE 2104 2393 A
Chassis 7 35297 S same trim & paint numbers also. I would be interested to see your chassis # Ours was described as a 2 door vannette, it has fixed rear glass, a strengthened underbody and Station Sedan badges on the rear quarter panels and no spare tyre door, looks just like an FE Wagon from the rear (http://s2.postimage.org/1MmW1r.jpg) ($2) (http://s3.postimage.org/1bYR4J.jpg) ($2) I look forward to seeing the pics, as I am sure you are looking forward to landing it, that looks like a Detroit Flash kit Cheers, Gary Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A.

Post by: zulu on December 25, 2009, 09:55:53 AM Robin, it looks more like Ruset Brown over Cuban Beige than 2 greens. I'll be curious to know if it has a spare tyre door opening.

Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: cajerridoc on December 28, 2009, 07:20:31 PM I did say not to quote me on the colours. I will take it what ever the colours are. It will just be good to get it home. The transport company said that they have 2 more waiting to be shipped from the same guy to various places.
Robin Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: cajerridoc on January 09, 2010, 06:17:20 PM I picked it up yesterday. Pictures coming.
Engine number is L401589 and chassis number 7-37589-M. Decoder not working (Internal error) at the moment so I can't check the build date. Robin Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: cajerridoc on January 09, 2010, 08:19:38 PM Finally some photos. The old girl has seen some tuff times. Plenty of work to be done on this one, but now I have completed the set.

The missing piece. Post by: mcl1959 on January 09, 2010, 08:49:32 PM Good one Robin, maybe you should pick up that wagon quarter on ebay at the minute.
The build date is about 14 November 1957 I know where there is a wreck sedan with most of the LHS detroit kit still on it. Are you interested? Ken Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: cajerridoc on January 10, 2010, 02:48:15 PM Thanks Ken.
I do have a wagon that I can get the left rear quarter panel from, in fact I thought I already had one cut out but it is the right side. As for the Detroit Kit, I have picked one up that appears to be complete, but if I can get some bits to complete this one that would be even better. Thanks Robin Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: GOA350 on January 11, 2010, 10:57:19 AM Nice find Robin, but it looks like a hell of alot of work to get this one back on the road.
Good luck with it, Cheers Scott Title: Re: FE2104-2123-A. The missing piece. Post by: hrpremier on January 11, 2010, 11:18:41 AM Those NASCO curtains in the back look like they could do with a good wash. :P
