Steve,

Have a look here on Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2127518637

This is an FE FC Series Shop Manual which would be useful. He should also look for an "Illustrated Parts Catalogue". These also appear on Ebay from time to time.

It would be wise to join one of the State clubs and take advantage of the vast amount of knowledge available.

Good luck,

Craig.

Steve,  I agree with Craig, club contact is the best.

Especially when you find that the million pieces you have are not enough to put the car back together, and you actually need a million and 10 pieces.

...and of the million pieces you do have, 5,000 of them are cactus and need to be replaced ::) and another 300 are spares picked up along the way that should be left over :o

If you and your mate are in Sydney or Melbourne, the NSW and Vic Club meetings are on tomorrow (Tuesday 13th) night.  Guests always welcome.

cheers
