Hi Rob,

Thanks for your reply, I have someone I know in Toowoomba, might have to see what I can organise.
Are you able to send some pics and price to my email address, sunliner58@gmail.com.

Thanks
Colin

Hi,
Does anyone have for sale, a sump and pickup from 179/149 motor, also I would like a HR front end. Please email me at sunliner58@gmail.com if you think you have something that would suit.
Thanks Impala

Hey Guys,
I cant understand what all the fuss is about, why dont you all just get out and enjoy what you have no matter what it is or how its done, its a common interest we share isnt it

Hey John,
Good to see another wagon on the road. It looks good. Just read about your motor and the choice to keep the grey motor, we have decided to put a 186 in ours, its not original, but should be better at towing the van.   Impala

Yes, John, you are absolutely correct, NascoHunter has just done some research on the car, and found that the colour is in fact Cape Ivory and Hi Gloss Black, with Mesa Tan and Black interior. Impala

Thanks everyone for the great comments, very much appreciated. We do actually still have the original black and white plates, but at the time of registering it [it was on club reg when we got it] we were told by Vic Roads that we could use those plates, but when we got there, we were told we had to pay $400 for the privelege. But we will keep the plates, and maybe someday put them back on the car. With regard to the colour, the previous owner insisted that it was cream, although we thought it was a very pale lemon, does anyone know what the actual colour is.    Impala

Dont worry, the whitewalls are coming, on the car and van 
And, the interior is black, unfortunately, the rest of the black is orange

Here are some pics of our new Holden FC wagon, which is the now the tow car for our vintage van, both are 1958 models, and we eventually hope to paint the van in the same colours as the car. The car was a one owner, with 64,000kms on the clock, and completely original.










And here are the car and van together.

Hi, Does anyone out there have a secondary crank to suit an electic wiper motor that has maybe come off a motor that is no good. Thanks Impala

Just thought I might be able to get one from a motor that was no good. Have any ideas what other options I might have with this motor  I might also put in a wanted ad, and see how I go.  Impala

Yes you are right, I am missing the secondary crank, do you know where I would be able to get one from. Thanks for your help. Impala

Yes, the crank and mounting flange all came with it. But, the original vacuum one has two holes in the crank plate, and the electric only has one hole in the crank plate, how does this adapt 

Hi all, just wondering if anyone can help me with the changeover of vacuum to electric wipers. I have purchased an FB-EK Delco electric wiper motor, but am unable to work out how it fits and works on the FC. Do I need more parts to get it working ?? Any and all help will be much appreciated.  Impala

Thanks, I will try all that was suggested, and let you know how I go. Impala

Hi All, would anyone know why my dash lights would not be working, checked the globes, they are good, would it have anything to do with the headlight switch?? Thanks Impala

Thanks for all your help, and you are right on all accounts, it has all the things that you said, including the FC229. Impala

Hi guys, thanks for your reply, I have an FC Station Sedan, it is two tone, has two tone seats, and blinkers, but does not say that it is a special anywhere, no badges etc. Although, it has no heater or radio, were these included or optional? Impala

Hi All,
I am new to old Holdens, always had hot rods and classics. So, my question is what is the actual difference between a Special and the others.
Thanks
Impala

Wanted, an FC wagon towbar. Thanks Impala 

Hi Tayz,
Is there a towbar in this wagon, as I am after one.
Thanks
Impala
