Title: Roof section wagon Post by: Ed on August 06, 2002, 11:08:50 PM Hello All,
I am hoping somebody out there can help. I would love to have a rear section of a wagon roof FE, FC, FB, EK. I need the corners only, for the nice bowl shape of the corners for use elsewhere. Alternatively can anybody suggest another vehicle with similar shape in the roof? ive thought perhaps a kombi roof? I have no pain in chopping up kombis... (essentially I need a rounded corner) thanks Ed ;) Title: Re: Roof section wagon Post by: RET on August 07, 2002, 01:14:00 AM And who said there was nothing worth salvaging on this:

RET didn't say whether or not that rig was still available for parts, but if you don't have any luck there, try Rick from Radical Early holdens again. He has a wagon that would have the bits you require. Ph 0740555091 Cheers Jason. P.S Got my motor today VT Comm wreck 51000k's with all the other goodies I need, now got to get it up here.

Thanks for the tantalising pic Richard, I could have used loads of bits off that!.. B Pillar, roof section plus more.. Now to find another CARcass ;) Good to hear the Van is making progress Jason!.. You should see Les' V6 sedan for some inspiration! Cheers Ed Title: Re: Roof section wagon Post by: Ed on August 08, 2002, 08:39:42 PM the idea of the roof is to use the shape to re-fabricate my firewall recesses (i want it neater..)
still thinking of it... I reckon the wiper motor recess may provide the right shape also for this purpose... anybody have a suitable donor? please..... gonna scan the trading post... once upon a time there was a bloke at Campelltown with FC to EK wrecks (scott somebody...?Eagleview Rd?), does anybody know if he is still around?

As far as i know Scott still lives there but he does'nt deal in the parts anymore because one of the local wreckers put him in to the council.They told them he was running a wrecking yard from his home so the council made him stop selling parts.

And for your info I've found welding many metal's that EK is the best /Very malluable ,workable ,soft etc etc. Title: Re: Roof section wagon Post by: Ed on August 15, 2002, 03:56:02 AM Thanks Harko,
