With great sadness I am putting my 56 FE special up for sale.
To cut a long story short I am in the process of buying my 1st home and have concluded that with renovations to do I really cant see myself having the time or money to continue with this project and would really like to see it go to a good home.
Car is in reasonable condition but still needs a lot of love. Mileage has just wound back past zero. Currently running and registered (it gets me to work and back without any troubles a few times a week). Has personalised South Australian plates "FE 1956"
Mechanically is in good running order although does leak a bit of oil and the tappets need adjustment.
Body is reasonably straight although surface rust will need attention in the near future. Also there is a small rust hole in a section of the subframe (have made enquiries about getting this repaired and have been told it wouldn't be that difficult).
Since I have had the car (about 5 years) it has got a new exhaust system, brakes, brake and clutch master cylinders, upgraded to 12V alternator, replaced head gaskets and welsh plugs, and engine mounts as well as a heap of other bits and pieces. Have got about $6000 in receipts with the car.
Am asking $7500 but happy to negotiate if the right buyer comes along.
Car is in Adelaide (Colonel Light Gardens)
