Title: FC Picture Post by: FCRB26 on April 25, 2012, 07:52:00 PM Came accross this picture the other day in my dads stash of school stuff he said he had forgotton all about it.
He drew it in the 60,S whilst at high school getting detention for doing it on his lunch bag during school time. He has always told me he doesnt like earlly holdens.. this sorta tells me otherwise.

Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: FCRB26 on April 25, 2012, 08:45:04 PM Ill have to ask him whats going on with that.

great times... ;D Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: customFC on April 25, 2012, 11:01:36 PM Very cool.
If he drew that from memory whilst in class, he had more than a passing interest in FCs. Looks to me like the sort of thing you would tattoo onto your body. Regards Alex Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: FCRB26 on April 26, 2012, 05:20:41 AM I think the memory of that 120Y overtaking us going up the hawkesbury when we drove mine home from sydney still messes with him.
Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: collecta on April 26, 2012, 11:34:51 AM did they have P plates in the 60,s ?
Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: zulu on April 26, 2012, 12:43:13 PM Yep, they did have P Plates, only red ones, the green ones came much later I recall them on my FC in 1968, this is a scan of my 1st car (http://s18.postimage.org/d5cakmaz9/BTE_638_1968_9.jpg) ($2) They also had Go Domes on the wheels of the hotties, interesting detail on the grille, sort of FE / FC hybrid your dad is an artist fchoon, thats a great drawing! Cheers, Gary Title: Re: FC Picture Post by: collecta on April 26, 2012, 09:43:35 PM Thanks Gary live and learn. Here in SA we did not get P plates till late 82 thought hoon senior was a visionary looking into the future. love the picture too.
