G,day.....love it, love it, love it. My first car was a "C" like yours, same green up front, but a white on top and rear. Had been stored for 10 years before I got my licence, 7's up front & 8's on the rear. So low that you couldn't drive over a match box standing on it's end. the old man worked at repco back then, so you can guess what happened. At the moment I have a modified fc station sedan & my grand pops fb ute. Spotted the sun visor, hope your going to keep it. More  pic's and updates please because I'm sure I,m not the only one that's in love...Rubber & low to go, go, go.......POP.

Love the Lokar shifter   Cool

Was it an easy fit ?
I'm running a 202 and trimatic

I was thinking about pulling out the BIG shiny B&M shifter during my rebuild and opting for the cooler more 'traditional' looking Lokar (and putting in a dummy clutch pedal just to confuse the onlookers  Grin)

Nice Car  Cheesy

Lokar shifter was for a turbo 350 cable operated.
 All that needed to be done was a longer arm on the selector shaft to get the full movement.

Beautiful FC, Kingy.

Maybe it's just my monitor, but the pictures on the first page make the car look a lighter shade of green compared to the photos on your flickr account. Still, looks cool.

Where have you dumped the exhaust?

Cheers,
