Goodaye all,this is my FE that i have been slowly restoring,thanks Darcy for posting the pics,im lost on this PC,its running a worked grey,twin carbs,speco headers,the next job is to install a twin exhaust,and fit the detroit flash kit thats sitting in the back seat,im really looking for that retro-oldschool look,i dont want any modifications that where not around in the 60,s.
I owned this car about 10 years ago,sold it to a mate who did a bit on it,when he had too much on his plate she went up for sale again,after selling my FC which i  was missing very much,i decided to buy it back,which im bloody glad i did,because i reakon its a pretty cool ride,im hoping to take it to the next FE-FC nats,it aint no show car,but it just looks cool!!! finding this forum has been my main inspiration for keeping motivated its a great thing and theres some great guys here,keep up the great work!!!cheers jamie Cool Cool Cool

i myself have seen this magnifcent car, its bloody beautiful, a true ozzy "hot rod", and i give jamie a lot of credit for that as some of the detail is magnificent

theres just one thing i cant get of of my head and thats the souind of it, i swear if he was in the parking lot and you were next to him, when he starts it up youd swear it was a v8
