Title: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: Johns on December 14, 2013, 12:01:22 PM Yes folks, Nev, my former FE sedan is on the front page of the weekend Financial Review. Unfortunately, the picture relates to the departure of GM from Australia.
Still, you cant keep a good FE down! Cheers John Title: Re: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: CraigA on December 14, 2013, 01:32:31 PM Good to see him pop up John, albeit in unfortunate circumstances.
A very pretty car. Merry Xmas. Title: Re: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: CraigA on December 14, 2013, 01:34:17 PM Story here

There was also an article in the Guardian ($2) that had that stock photo of the FC Ute with the farmer and family standing next to or in it.
Nice to see classic Holdens in the press, but rather unfortunate circumstances. Title: Re: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: ridgey_didge on December 14, 2013, 05:25:52 PM Col T made the Canberra Times coverage, with his FE, his humpy and Tailshaft Tim's FC wagon in picture.
Title: Re: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: WARATAH on December 14, 2013, 06:11:38 PM Hi John
It must be Nev's month. He will appear in the 2014 Classic Car Magazine Year Book along with Gregs 1959 FC and the 62 EJ which is due to hit the newstands in early January. Since October he has picked up three awards at the various shows we have taken him to. We are continually improving Nev ironing out little problems as they occur. Today Greg and I finally got around to fitting a 3.55 diff to him and he now purrs along at 60mph like he had a new lease of life. So smooth and so quiet. The next job is to tidy up the tail end underneath the car. That will just about make the Nev look like new.

The three holdens after the fires in Bargo. Title: Re: Nev is in the spotlight again Post by: customFC on December 14, 2013, 11:37:44 PM The Classic Car yearbook is already on the news stand. A great article.
