FE Ute - story sharing

[Stuey]

Hi All,

Back in July 2004 i was assisted via this forum to purchase my FE ute. (Rat previous owner)  The ute being my 'first car' was used to go to and from school, sporting commitments and part time work.  2 years later I left my home town of Port Pirie SA and relocated for Uni studies to Adelaide.  The ute wasn't registered from around 2006 until now. 
I been fortunate that i haven't had to do much to the vehicle since 2004 besides installing head unit + speakers, new wishbone, welded up crossmember, changed some springs, little bit of gear box and break system work, etc.

Long story short just wanting to become more involved with the FE FC community as i am wanting to start chipping away at the wish list for the ute getting it back up to tip top condition. The ute and I now reside in Adelaide.

Here is a pic of its current condition.  Ill get the camera out and upload some more pics soon.

Regards Stuey

Hi Neil.  It's got a 186 red motor with extractors in it at the moment.
The wish list involves getting some side holden writing badges for the front side pannels, wanting to get a front bonnet emblem to finish it off nicely. Then need to look at tidying up the tray, maybe convert the front to discs, then by that time would look at cutting out rust and re paint pannels where smalls paint bubbles currently exist. And so on, and so on.
