Peter's Car

[Longhurst]

FC Special Sedan purchased new in Cooma NSW.
One owner up to about two years ago. The second owner travelled to Bright in the first year and 30 miles in the second.
I purchased the FC in January this year with 83,000 miles on the clock and the car remains in Cooma which means no rust.
Exterior and interior still original condition, first owner removed rear seat as he did not wish to transport others and there are some original stone chips on the front. The third set of tyres has just been fitted and the original FC version venetian blind has been located and the windscreen sunshade has beeen re fitted.
The car is the 16,959th Special Sedan assembled in Sydney in January 1959 and the 28,684th FC in any body style assembled in Sydney.
The motor was manufactured in December 1958 and the vehicle is painted in the late 1958 scheme style Olinda Green and Abode Beige.

Peter, Great car !

What are the colours of the car ?

Looks to be a pale bluey green which is very unusual.  Can you provide the details which are on the ID plate.

Late '58 paint scheme - we don't see enough of those.  IMHO the nicest of the FC paint schemes.  Thanks for posting the pix - that's a v. nice looking car you have there.
