Title: The StinkWagon! Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on June 07, 2005, 12:37:24 AM Well I finally got one!
Spent most of the past weekend driving between Adelaide and Castlemaine, about 720kms each way once you get out to my place from Adelaide. All with 4 kids, those portable DVD Players are a life saver! The FC drove all the way back to Adelaide with only one hitch, the Speedo was on it's way out. Bouncing around get less accurate until eventually getting noisy and all over the place, then about 100kms from home a constant grinding/squealing and spinning all the way around. Hopefully Dave keeps the page up for a while so that the pics work. (http://www.hot-rod.com.au/fc/DSC_0751.jpg) More here- http://www.hot-rod.com.au/fc/fc.htm Title: Re: The StinkWagon!

Its good to see the wagons gone to a good home. So welcome to the wagon sub branch. What have got installed for this one ? Cheers Glenn Title: Re: The StinkWagon!

Not sure of what I will do at the moment, probably drive it as is for while. I was thinking of some custom spats ala gree's car, some moon discs or other full cap with thin white walls and lowered. Possibly a red 6/auto/HR swap in the future. The FE is the bruiser, so the wagon will be the cruiser. ;D Title: Re: The StinkWagon! Post by: Ed on June 07, 2005, 04:21:51 AM Hi Stinky,

Good thing come to those who wait. Nice pick-up I guess the wagon out the back paddock just became spare parts. ;D Cheers Sarge Title: Re: The StinkWagon! Post by: Rtaylor on June 09, 2005, 12:52:21 AM That is a nice buggy Glenn, loooks like it could be the similar colour to Ian's FC sedan. Are u gunna take it out on club runs eventually? It sure would look good on teh road.
Cheers Title: Re: The StinkWagon! Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on June 09, 2005, 02:41:47 AM I dunno Sarge, after seeing some of the miracles performed on the board the paddock wagon may yet see the road.
Geez Ron, 5 posts in 2 years, you'll never make Guru ;D All being well, I will be spending the whole day Saturday getting it ready for the sunday run. Speedo needs replacing and seatbelts all around. Title: Re: The StinkWagon! Post by: Martin on June 12, 2005, 10:33:32 AM Nice pick-up, Glenn. Look forward to seeing it next weekend.

Any chance of passing some leads for any others you know of around Adelaide??? By the way, it looks really nice. Cheers Dave Title: Re: The StinkWagon! Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on July 16, 2005, 05:44:18 AM Sorry Dave, non in Adelaide at the moment, I had to go to Castlemaine VIC to get that one!
There was one on eBay not long ago that seemed cheap, but again it was interstate. |
