G-day there...I forgot to mention I'm running 13x7 steel rims...and diff is a 3.08..
sounds like I should try a 2.78...thanks will start looking.. :-)

G-Day all,
My FE runs an HR disc front end,an HR LSD and an aussie 4 speed behind a 186 red...at 100klm's she screams
her head off cruzzzin down the highway...my question is would dropping the diff ratio help reduce the old 186
from reving it's head off?.....
cheers Denis...

 G-Day there..
 
I think I'm asking for the impossible..anyhow I'm after a drivers side stainless steel bracket that holds the sunvisor to the gutter rails
 
 Cheers Denis.

G-Day there,
Just wondering,is there another Holden steering box that bolts straight in to an FE/FC on the sub frame?...Cheers Denis.

G-Day,If anyone has a set of interior door arm rests for an FE I would be interested in buying them.I have the stainless trim,
just need the arm rests....I live in the Southern highlands NSW.Thanks Denis...

G-day,
Just curious, can you buy an FE front indicator lens new.
cheers Denis.

G-Day,
If anyone has a scripted "holden" drivers side front guard spear for an FE...I would be interested in buying it.
Cheers Denis.

G-day all,
             trying to find an FE bonnet ornament to buy.The one that sits above the Holden badge and chrome surround....any help in locating one of these would be great!!
               Cheers Denis.

Thanks Graham!
                     Cheers Denis.

G-Day all,
             Can anyone help me with identifying the colour the roof is painted on the "FE Holden in the Colour Cinema Commercial(1956)"on you tube....sorry dunno how to put a link up.The recipe for this colour would be appreciated!
             Thanks Denis.

G-day all,
            I'm just after the long chrome bonnet ornament thingy that sits above the bonnet badge with the plastic insert on the FE models,have seen a few on some cars and I like the look of them. Not after anything flash,all my chrome and stainless has a very weathered look.    
                        Cheers Denis.

G-day all,
            I'm after 2 rear quarter SPECIAL badges to finish my FE 225. With or without the Holden badge is ok.They don't need to look a million bucks,just need a set...any set just to finish the old girl.....Is it true you can buy the holden badge that sits on the SPECIAL badge from rare spares?....I'm in the Ipswich-Gatton area QLD.
                       Cheers Denis.
                       

Got some spears today, very good nick. Picked up some roof gutter rails last week.....very happy!!! Thanks Pete.
        cheers Denis.

No worries Ken I can do that next time I'm there. Colin he's hourding them, He only sold me the FE because it was a bit gone.
                        Denis.

Thanks Ken,
                I flew down to NSW near Bermagui where the inlaws live last week, was lucky enough to pick up a pair of gutter rails of an old complete FE I brought from the old bloke over the road a few years back. I basically took what parts I needed back then and left it sitting there.So I was very pleased to see it still had the rails on it.....I also spotted a complete FC wagon sitting in the paddock not far from it,turns out he tried to get a wrecking business going but it never took off.Eh's Hr's old fords everywhere...
                    Denis.

G-Day,
          I'm just curious, They say if you don't ask you don't know. Did the stainless steel gutter roof trim come out on all FE and FC models?...or was it just the Special models?...
                  thanks Denis.

G-day all,
              I'm after 2 stainless roof gutter rails for my FE 225 also a complete set of FE or FC spears for the guards and front doors. I live between Ipswich & Toowoomba QLD.
                                     Thanks Denis.

Can anyone help me with a complete rear boot surround with the Holden Special stainless trim? I don't need the boot lock or key.

I have a 225 Special Sedan with no stainless, so I'd be interested in any other stainless trim as well. 

I live in SE Qld, between Brisbane & Toowoomba.

Cheers,
Denis.

G-day Keith.
                  I'm very lucky to still have the car. I was doing an apprenticeship in Boilermaking and needed a set of wheels to get to work. I was living at home and told mum I'm off to the bank to put some cash in........Guess what!. I didn't even come close to it, I turned up in the FE, I can still remember her shaking her head at me. Drove it around for a few years,I drove it to Perth and back, it didn't miss a beat once, I lived in NSW then QLD nowadays, then thinking she needed a tidy up I started to strip her down.
                   Now I've got a brother who I asked if I could put it in his shed, he said no worries. I left it there for weeks thinking its OK. I was working in the area so I went to visit him,When I pulled up I met a very pissed off landlord wanting my brothers blood and some rent.I told him I was the owner of the FE in the shed.He told me the old car wasn't in the shed it was sitting out the back fence sitting on it's front end and diff,all the parts, wheels and stainless were gone that were in the car.It was just a shell.He told me he had just got off the phone to Sims Metal to come and pick it up for scrap.               
                    I managed to get it home that day, The next 12 or so years I just collected what I could for it in between getting married and bringing 5 boys into this world, I reckon its turned out alright,as for the brother,Don't ask........Cheers Denis.
