Title: Emu's New Addition Post by: Emu on April 05, 2004, 07:21:15 AM Here's a shot of my new baby.
Hilda's husband "Harvey" Acquired the other day from the Local Tweed Heads Senior Constable. India Ivory/Granite Grey I'd say 8/10 all round although he needs new paint. Has spats, original grey with oil bath and no filter. I'm hoping Harvey n Hilda may be able to procreate, but I think Hilda is past menopause. The plan is to take both Hilda and Harvey to nationals. Sarah wants to take one and I'll drive the other. Numbers for Ken FC-226-7059A Trim 277-629 Paint 253-7700 256-7770 top Engine is L621615 which seems to be a replacement as this car is a 1958. Body number: 88968-B (http://photo.starblvd.net/Emu_FC/1-5-2-1083950867?m=1&pg=0&ro=4&co=1) ] Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: -KIWI- on April 05, 2004, 07:35:22 AM it seems only fitting that i congratulate you on your new addition look foward to given it a burst round the gold coast next month aye emu old mate buddy pal 8) 8) 8)

Looks like a really good score - is it original paint? Certainly looks good in the photo - and most importantly very complete. Cheers, Craig. Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: Emu on April 05, 2004, 08:18:09 AM Not sure about the paint Craig.
It seems to me that the India Ivory is more yellow than I have seen. I think it may have been re-sprayed at some stage. I am going to try to find a bit of history of the car. Has hada couple of grand spent on motor, gear box has been re-co'd, new tyres all round, new exhaust. It was a great pick up I reckon. Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: customFC on April 05, 2004, 10:07:53 AM Looks like a very tidy example. You did good!!
Looking forward to seeing your cars and naturally yourself and your good wife at the Nats. Only a year away now. Regards Alex Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: FC0058 on April 05, 2004, 10:22:57 AM Hi Emu
Well the eggs are starting to hatch at your place. I think I should pull my finger out and find myself another car. I started holidays on friday so am going to resume the big strip down on Grace again this week. I will find that car I am looking for sometime soon. Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: zulu on April 05, 2004, 09:14:29 PM What can I say? it's all been said, nice pick up Emu.
Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: Fast_Eddie on April 06, 2004, 02:47:26 AM Be still, oh beating heart.
......and to think, I was debating whether to change the colour scheme. Never, I tell you. Never! (http://photo.starblvd.net/FastEddie/1-1-4.jpg) Sorry Emu, I got carried away. Your new FC is identical to my first FC, that is currently being rebuilt with a 307 Chev. It can be the evil twin to yours at the Nationals. Regards Ed Title: Re: Emu's New Addition Post by: Effie C on April 06, 2004, 03:56:49 AM Eddie get rid of the Squiggle line in front of your name in the properties of the picture.
