hey gary looks like there may be a seat in the back fj convertable across the road in 1st pic Title: Re: FC CONVERTABLE Post by: customFC on November 05, 2003, 07:56:20 AM That would be a cool car and stronger than a sedan with the roof off. A member of our club used to cruise around delivering papers in a car just like that in the mid 60's. (Might even be the same car?) I have a pic somewhere....stay tuned.

Front quarters on the second one, no quarter vents on the top one. And number plate in the first one starts with a "C", but the second car looks more likely to be a "B".
When it rained these things must have been the biggest bathtub around Great pictures!! Cheers, Craig. Title: Re: FC CONVERTABLE Post by: Ed on November 06, 2003, 09:44:43 PM HEy Cool!.. an FC Phantom?
