Title: unusual FC vans Post by: cam58tiger on May 03, 2013, 08:10:19 AM Hi all
looking thru Don Loffler's new book 'Holden Days' I noticed something weird - the two FC panel vans in this pic have high rooves and ute doors... Anyone seen one of these in the flesh? What were they about? cheers Cam (http://s13.postimg.org/4f6avljgj/commercials.jpg) ($2) Title: Re: unusual FC vans Post by: Just40 on May 03, 2013, 09:05:32 AM well bugga me :o

They appear to be body built specials, starting with a ute and adding a van or wagon roof panel. Looks very well done. I doubt they are Holden built.
They would have cost quite a lot to convert as well but would be stronger on a ute body than on a van base. Ken |
