Title: Black FE For Sale (Melbourne) Post by: Motörhead on January 25, 2006, 12:48:34 PM Hi there fellas,
I don't know if this is ethical or in breach of forum guidelines so please someone let me know if it is in breach. On page 106 of the February 2006 edition of JUST CARS, there is an ad for a 1957 FE Special up for sale which is as follows: "1957 Holden FE Special, black, completely original with motor rebuilt less than 1500 miles ago. One owner for last 17 years. Excellent chrome & minimal work required for a truly beautiful example, GRN 650. Mob: 0421 796 810 (VIC) $5,990" The thing is that I know which suburb the car is located in (not telling) and I have often driven past the car parked on the street to admire it. Additionally I have photos of the car in question which were sent to me by another forum member who has also seen it parked on the street. I will put these photos up shortly. Again, particularly as I don't know and haven't spoken to the seller, could someone please advise me if my post is in breach of forum guidelines and if neccessary delete the post. Cheers ......

I believe with a bit of TLC it would be golden. Please don't ask me to reveal the exact location of the car as I will only tell you to contact the seller. Cheers ......

Would the name of the street where this car is be a girls name? located in a suburb that a football team is named after? :-/ Cheers a-c Title: Re: Black FE For Sale (Melbourne) Post by: Motörhead on January 26, 2006, 03:58:43 PM Hi air-chief,
You obviously know of the car so yes, the street is named after THAT girl and yes, the suburb is named after THAT footy team (which I hate). :-/ Or are you ummm .... the owner of the car? :-X If you're not the owner, I hope you keep the exact car location to yourself. Cheers ...... Pete Title: Re: Black FE For Sale (Melbourne) Post by: air-chief on January 27, 2006, 02:54:23 AM Hey Machine
I've been looking at that car for a fair few years now since I changed jobs and started plumbing that area. For a car thats parked on the street every day its in such good condition. Cheers Mark.

They may not even know about the forum?
Just a thought Matt |
