Welcome to the board and congrats on the purchase, you are obviously not in SA as the weather has been very wintery lately.
Stock or Modified?

Looks like you got yourself a good body to start with. Welcome to the forum and the FE/FC Family enjoy the forum there are a lot of great people on here who are all willing to give advice if required.
There are also an equal amount of shit stirrers, but it is all tongue in cheek. Enjoy your time here and do yourself a favour and join the FE FC club in your state.
Cheers Jim

Your wagon has that good ol' Aussie sunburnt look.
Good luck with the resto.

yes,back to baremetal,what a fight that old paint puts up.
colour will be Fountain Blue and India Ivory.
the body had alot of pitting so it took a fair while to get it looking half ok,but all being well the painter should be in the next two weeks to do the deed.
