Title: 57 FE Ute Post by: 53vicky on January 27, 2014, 10:12:04 PM Hi all
New to the forum & thought I would add my latest project. It comes with all the usual rust issues although it has had a canopy on for Part of its life which has saved the rear, complete car just in a lot of bits... It needs front pans, A pillar lowers, sills and some serious work to the qtr panels which RichFC has already help out with. Doors, guards also need work but I suppose it is an oldie now..... Currently just finishing off a HQ Ute which was really rough but managed to save and did a v6 conversion and will use as a daily driver. This ute I will probably do more as a stocky with some very mild mod's. I need to get some info on the best repo patch panels available as I would rather go with the ones that are closest to original and best fitting as possible.

The rest of the back looks good hardly done any work.

Unable to help with panels, sorry. Have seen a few adds on Gumtree - stockpiles of old stock at times e.g. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/shailer-park/auto-body-parts/early-holden-parts-and-bits-fe-fc-fb-ek-hx-hq-hg-ej-eh-lh-lj/1019966201 Title: Re: Post by: fe350chev on December 04, 2014, 06:27:41 PM Any progress?
