Yeh sgo has the right idea, I work in the body shop at Holdens and if we come across something like that (which is rare) we cut open the panel and weld the nut inside then weld the panel back together,file,buff and you would never know.

Thanks RET I got onto the club today and they are sending me out the details and will be joining in the next couple of days.
thanks mike.

I am currently trying to join the club in SA and sent the club an email a week ago and have recieved no reply, is this the correct address committee@sa.fefcholden.org.au
or is it only read when the club meets, if any one can help it would be appreciated.
thanks mike.

i am after a pair of fc front doors in good cond and also a pair of fenders to suit the same could you email the prices of them if you still have them
also after an original heater to suit 59 special if you have one
thanks,  mike.

some more on my front guard it has holden script writing towards the rear of the guard it doesnt look like normal fe/fc style it seems more like fj it looks original but who knows

i have at the moment a front right hand guard that i believe is of off a fe but cannot be sure as i found it sitting in the back of a fc wagon but the guard doesnt have any blinker holes at all and i have checked and they havent been patched over does any one know more about these.

With your lights, check that it is not the foot operated high low beam switch that is stuffed and not the dash switch - it is alot cheaper and easily sourced if it is the problem.  Didn't FB,s have mechanical wipers the same as the EK's and not vacume?

what are dogs legs?

OK stupid me it is a warmaride (written on the front panel).  Second question though, what is the wire/tube (thin steel about 2mm) which runs from the water shut off valve to the back of the unit.  Also, I run a red motor and which are the best take off points to feed nice hot water into the heater ie off the carby sie of the thermostat housing (two points) or off the water pump (plug side) and the head?

My EK Special is fitted with a standard heater.  1. Is this the type of heater people refer to a warmride heaters (box shaped with central fan knob)? 2. Where and can I get a replacement water valve for it as mine leaks?
Thanks, Mike
