Hey, We are getting Married next year in Bundaberg Qld and Im having Drama's finding some wedding Cars to acompany my FC , I have rang all the local car clubs but is hard to get anyone because of the club rego rules in qld, Just wondering if anyone hire cars around the bundy area,It does not have to be an FC, any early holden would be excellent!
Any help would be great ....Cheers

The ute is sold

A mate off mine has his EK ute up for sale ,Its very original ,has 75000miles on the clock and has'nt been rego'ed since 1975 ,needs a paint job but still has its original paint ,has no rust and very straight,all original floor pans,all log books and manuals,seat has been recoverd and the grey rebuilt ,I drove it around his place the other day and she drive sweet,its one of the most original ute ive seen for a long time,the ute is located in Gladstone in Qld,ph 0449089504

I have CRS drop spindles ,had a world of trouble getting clearance on everything,didnt like the idear of spacers or changing the steering setup,I ended up having the rims dished to suit ,all good 

Hey pedro ,couple of photos for you ,wheels are 5.5"wide ,195 and 185x14 tyresbit dirty under there ,time for a scrub

I had heaps of trouble with wheels ,nothing i found that had a classic style was the right dish ,i have crs drop spindles which gives u even less options ,im a fitter/machinist by trade and this is what i came up with.i think they came out good,14"and with early holden caps,

Hey 50plus ,I had both my Brake and Clutch master cylinders stainless lined ,from memory it was about $50 each with the PBR rebuild kit,i had to assemble them myself ,Not much to it

MY compressor blew the head gasket once which would'nt let it build up enough air to turn the pressure swich off,could be worth a look,very easy to fix
The pressure switch could be playing up too

As I was saying the earlier post I've owned my FC for 16 yaers ,not all those years have been easy for the old girl,she was my first car and my only car for 6 years seeing me through my P plates ,which she coped burnouts and all the stuff u do when your 18-19years old
I raced speedway for a few years and she was my tow car ,and of course i had to tow a ford ,got a few weird looks rocking up to speedway with a tow car heaps older than the car on the trailer.
Fat Charlie gets treated like a baby now,As u get older u have an appreciation for a car that has survived the test of time even after the shit i put it through

I reckon ya ute is one sweet looking ride

hey Reddo
             The wheels on my FC are all 14" and 5.5"wide ,the offset is right in the midle which is 70mm ,they still just touch the back guards slightly on a hard corner with 195-60 tyres,  she's sitting very low and the fronts just touch the guards if u go into a driveway on full lock a bit to fast ,the front tyres are 185-60's

Original color is Ascot Grey with riff red and black interior,Ive been told it's unusual to have one tone in a special,has all the bling too like grill badge nasco heater with demisters and washers

The rims are custom made 14"to fit EH hub caps ,rim outers are reversed to clear the spindles,lots of work went into rims just to get something a little different,

Hey ,Just a few photos of my FC I have recently finished ,She has a worked 202 ,toyota 4 speed ,hr front end with CRS stubs,eh diff,14"wheels,It's sprayed in the original color inside and out,I have owned the car for about 16 years and still get a thrill out of driving it
