Thanks Gary, originally a single colour Sky Grey car changed to the very popular 2 tone blue - even the original red interior has been changed to blue.
Did it have another bonnet emblem on the front?  They look a little weird at first on the rear quarters, but they're starting to grow on me :)

The engine number is a WA Police number, so i would say that it had a reco motor in it at an early stage in its life.

Your right there Scotty,  issued in 1963 and sequence number 939

Those rear wings just don't quite look right to me

The seller was splitting up and his partner got to the car with a knife and stabbed the seats.

This car was advertised in the quokka and the same night the owner was offered a deal...as soon as the money showed up on the sellers account he had it on a trailer and drove to Kellerberrin that night to offload it....before anymore damage could be done

The FE was almost a finished resto when this happened and the trim was brand new

There are a couple of minor issues with the car and a couple of wrong parts on the car...but a great buy none the less

Has a great pearled steering wheel ,original radio, Wilsonia gauge and spats

Cheers
Gary
