Title: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: uncleraggy on August 19, 2006, 09:29:44 PM Hi all, would anybody know the whereabouts of a silver and burgundy FC Holden would be. Last I knew the rego was NSW BL-444. It was a Street Machine cover car back in 1984 (small picture in the corner, XYGT was main car). It belonged back then to my girlfriends brother in law. She wants to know if the car still exists, what conditions she's in etc. And she would love to see it again. Any ideas??? Thanks!

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: craiga on August 20, 2006, 09:11:57 AM There has been discussion about this car previously, it was built/owned by Bob Lubjic who met an unfortunate end off the gap a couple of years ago.
From memory the pictures and posts indicated that the car was in Victoria/South Australia?

I dug up a few more pics of the car that I took when it first did the rounds. Roselands Hot Rod Show. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/customfc/holden 1/BL444c.jpg) At Parramatta Park.

I probably have another 1/2 a dozen or more shots of Bob's FC.

Cheers Craig. My girlfriend saw the car with the perspex bonnet panels in St Mary's NSW a few years ago and thought it may be it. I'm not so sure, it doesn't have the flared guards like Bob's had originally but I guess anything is possible to change back to original. Your input is much appreciated! And thanks for the link to the photo's Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: BOVAFC on August 22, 2006, 10:14:01 AM I bought this one from Mt Gambier on Evil Bay almost 2 years ago paid $4500 plus freight and just sold her for $2000. Might be the one you are talking about as has bonnet panels and blue interior like that one thought you might be interested ;)

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Jockster on August 22, 2006, 11:54:56 AM The car Bovac has is originally from NSW and was a show car in the early eighties, but it never had flared guards, I remember seeing it at a number of shows in Sydney, it was at one show where Bobs car was also on display, so it is definitely a different car. It also appeared at some shows in Northern Victoria. I brought it back to Mount Gambier from Sydney as a project car and put new wheels and tyres on it, rebuilt the carby and put a performance dizzy in it. I took it for a test run and it went hard, spun the speedo off the clock and broke the cable, it had a very tough motor in it. I sold it to Bovac as I basically had too many projects and not enough space and time. I sure wish I had kept that motor though......

Jockster Cheers Jockster, you've at least confirmed that this car of BOVAFC's isn't Bob's. Still gonna keep on searching, would love to be able to buy the car back but it sounds like it's much loved and would be hard to acquire. Still, you never know huh! Darren. Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: GOA350 on August 24, 2006, 09:26:16 AM From what i recollect this car was the Big M car in the 80's . The one in the ad with the Porsche. A guy named Brett bought it in the early 90's and had it for around 8 years in Victoria then sold it, but i don't know who to. I know that Brett looked after it very,very well and wouldn't let it go to someone who wouldn't treat it the same as he would. I don't know the whereabouts of it now but would also like to know.
Cheers Scott Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: customFC on August 24, 2006, 10:59:58 AM The car was at the 4th FE FC Nationals at Bendigo and even won a prize. The plates back then were victorian, 'GMHFC'.

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Tailshaft_Tim on September 03, 2006, 09:41:37 PM I was less than 10 years old when I first saw those Big M commercials. I remember asking my Dad if the car featured was a 1955 Chev - he told me it was an FC Holden. From that day onwards, I saved every single cent of pocket money and delivered newspapers for 5 years until I had enough to buy my first FC (pictured left).
So I say a very sincere thank you to the bloke who used to own that FC and everyone involved with the Big M commercials at the time. I've been obsessed with FC Holdens for over 20 years, and I've owned my green FC for 15 years. Like most, I can't wait for the 50th Anniversary in Mt Gambier in 2008.

I'm glad that Bob's car made such a huge impression on you, it's unfortunate that Bob is no longer with us. From all reports a truly top bloke, with car building skills to match. Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Devilrod on December 19, 2006, 02:32:29 AM Bugger me, I was looking for some other info and stumbled upon this! As Scott said I owned it for quite awhile during the 90's and 01's. During the time I owned it I added a rather large amount of stereo gear installed, with a stipulation of no cutting. Then had it resprayed in similar colours (as it was crazing after being sprayed with flattener for a tv add prior to me owning it).
Last I heard of it was the guy who bought it off me was putting a Chev in it. He was from Mornington/ Mount Martha area Vic. Last seen by a mate of mine 3-4 years ago still looking the goods. But still running the 6 then. Seems it may still be off the road?????? Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: customFC on December 19, 2006, 04:31:48 AM Hey Devilrod
Surely you would have some pics from when you owned it. How about sharing a couple if you do. Always interested to see the history of a car. Much appreciated. Regards Alex Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Devilrod on December 20, 2006, 09:31:51 AM Sadly I don't have that many and definetly not digital! I'll get organized over the chrissy break and scan some to post. All that seems to have changed on the car from the earlier shots was the seat inserts and the wheels/tyres. Not noticeable was the auto and highstall installed by the previous owner to me. He too kept the car imaculate.
I used it as a daily driver from 95ish through till 98 then resprayed it and used it only on weekends till I sold it around mid 2001. If I remember anything else I'll post it later.... Damn nice car to drive. Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: FC0058 on January 09, 2007, 04:32:08 AM Hi All
I finally unpacked the last of my boxes and tracked down the 1984 Street Machine Magazine featuring BL 444.

Taken at Holden's 40 anniversary at Port Melbourne in 1988, it shows "the Big M" car in a line up of FC's. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/customfc/holden 1/tonypic3.jpg) Is it the same car?

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: TAYZ on February 11, 2007, 12:05:43 PM As other people have mentioned this FC was the basis for my passion throughout the 80's. I had every magazine this FC was in. Its great now to see these pics of it. Also Alan HALES FC was sensational and to see it at the last nats was great. I hope this FC is still kicking strong somewhere

If yes, this must have been before devilrod owned it. Regards Alex Hey Alex, thats not it. If you look it has no flares on the gaurds and what looks to be a different interior altogether. I have found some pics and a more current feature in a car audio mag that was done while I owned it. Only problem is my scanner software doesn't like XP. I'll have to do it at work and post them. Sure wish I knew where it was know, wouldn't mind seeing what condition its in... Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: customFC on March 04, 2007, 01:11:00 PM Hey Devilrod.
Looking forward to seeing the pics. I guess my question is: Is Bob's FC the same car as the FC in the Big M adverts? We didn't get Big M adverts in Sydney back then (a Vic drink), so have no first hand account of the car. The car in Tony's pic may be the Big M car, and like you, I don't believe it is Bob's car. So are they 1 and the same? I came across another pic of Bob's car the other day. I will get it posted soon. Regards Alex Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: customFC on March 05, 2007, 12:12:12 PM Bob's car at the 7th Street Machine Nats.

So they sprayed something over the car to dull it off for the ad, the downside of which was the paint started to craze later on in life, basically not long after I got it. Hence the respray.
Over the years quite a few FC's have been built in similar colour schemes and I'm guessing that the one you posted Alex is just another. Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Devilrod on January 02, 2008, 09:44:12 PM Bringing this back to the top and for a very good reason.
Its resurfaced!!!!! And is for sale,sadly I don't think i'll be buying it back. But if anyone wants the number a member of the vic FC/FE club saw it and has it written down. I have no idea of price or condition other than it still looks good...his words. Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: uncleraggy on January 02, 2008, 10:10:12 PM Mate, would you have the contact details of the member you speak of? Very interested in at least taking a look and haggling
Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: mikey on January 02, 2008, 10:15:42 PM Found the ad on you tube that I loved so much back then. Hopefully I have done the right thing with the link.

It was this ad that really sparked my interest to get one, and I did when I got my licence, ahhh the power of TV. Hope the video of the car brings a cheers to someones heart.

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: customFC on January 03, 2008, 10:59:27 PM Thanks for the link to the advert.
I had not seen it before.....must have been a Vic ad. Interesting to hear that the car has turned up again. I would like to see it's current state after all these years. Regards Alex Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: mikey on January 04, 2008, 12:29:47 AM Back then the ad was huge, all you had to say with a snooty voice was "oh how quaint, an Australian car" and people would know exactly what you were referring to. Absolute gold.
Recognise the driver and the bird with red hair with Brad but their names escape me at the minute.

Ah what memories :D As you say it was hugely popular and I was driving an FC at the time. Every time I was out, there would be people coming up to me and asking where I left my big M. ::)
thanks for the clip - brilliant! Ken Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: Devilrod on January 07, 2008, 10:09:03 PM Sorry Uncleraggy no go with the number, he didn't write it down. It was parked somewhere along Mornington Tyabb Road.

Title: Re: Looking for Silver/ Burgandy FC BL-444 Post by: kelnic on April 21, 2008, 09:24:38 AM i forgot to mention that i think the number plate on that silver/red fc from mount martha was something like GMHFC :)
