Hey Craig
  Good pic once again , but this would be a little early for mine , it was built by Keith Croft in 1970 , and was (yuk) green for a few years . there were about 12-14 FE/FC's around at that time, alas  , a lot of guys stripped  the mechanicals , dumped the shells  Angry and updated to Toranas.  But you just gotta love the yellow  Grin

Norm,

On looking closer it does look like the yellow car is too small to be an FE/FC. Oh well, the black special is cool anyway!!

Cheers,

Craig.

   Black one sure is cool ,  notice those day's you didn't need to strip the chrome fittings from the car  , bit dangerous in a "prang"   :-/
   the Yellow car ,  could it be a Simca ( remember the old slogan   " Some car that Simca"  ) ,  Mmmm, maybe I'm showing my age here  Grin

        It sure looks like a Simca they had the 4cyl Flash motor in them and a 4 speed column change. Hey Norm your not showing your age it's only your knowledge. Wink  

    Cheers Al

There's no need to talk about Simcas Aronde here!

It is interesting how the profile of the cars change when the glass is removed.
