Title: Torana Front End?
Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on February 10, 2006, 10:37:59 PM
Has anyone ever heard of an LH/LX front end for an FE/FC? I have seen an LC front end chopped and welded to suit an EK Wagon.

Hey Stinky,

After seeing the HQ graft on Fitzy's FC anything is possible.

you could make it fit if you really wanted to.. but I reckon it is "re-inventing" the wheel or you're just way too talented with too much time on your hands.

Cheers

Ed

Hey Glenn,
Tony at old oldens at lonsdale does these.
There is a lot involved in fitting but once they are done
its all worth it he did give me some prices and a tour of his workshops. Nice EK with one fitted as well as a healthy 350. The reason behind the F/E are the rack and pinion steering is already set up and proven.
cheers
