That's not a shed........that's a bl**dy MUSEUM !
Not even a spec of dirt on the brick paved floor......how awesome....well done.
Are there plans in place for these cars, or are you collecting ?

Six are registered, 1 is spares, 1 is for sale and 4 are projects.
I have been happily married for 17 years and recently built the wife and kids their own shed 20 X 40 feet. The secret is to be fare to all , oh yes, and both work.
I have 2 other sheds and 2 carports.
My plan is to collect one of each of the models offered in the FE and FC range. ie Standard, Business and Special Sedans, Standard and Special Wagon, Ute and Panel Van. A total of 7 in each of FE and FC. I am missing an FC Business Sedan. Of course I have some extras for spares and also an FC Vanette.
I am not braging, just letting you know why there are not so many FE and FC's around. The collection has come from 5 States and one Territory.
Sadly they are not breeding, if anything they are slowly deminising as 2 (or more) become 1.
Just in case it is not clear what the shed was built for in the future, I wrote "FE" and "FC" in the pavers when I laid the floor.

This shed is designed for storage only and is 63 x 25 feet, just long enough and wide enough to hold 12 FE's and FC's with a bit of room to move around. There are 3 sliding doors on each end. I got the seconds pavers for around $18 per square metre, a lot cheaper than cementing the floor and easy to lay your self.
I have some more photos of the green ute with the canopy, it will take a while to get them posted, my old computer doesn't talk to the digital camera.
As for what is in the other sheds, well obviously, more FE's and FC's. I will get you some pics or you could come and have a look yourself.

If only the canopy could talk  Had you ever cursed it 4hammers , Maybe it could tell us a few stories about argument's in the front seat it had overheard Truly awesome shed cajerridoc ,Im in awe ... Im flat out building in a confined space and aspire toward having a larger space but cant believe having space just to store stuff will ever happen . Thanks for the pic's ,Stuff like this is always good to sway the missus just that little bit further.... |

I believe that canopy belonged to my Ute I purchased from Ace in NSW who purchased it from 4hammers in Tassy. I had no need of it, so bought my FC Ute sans canopy. So yes I'm sure it could tell a story or two.

Trust me, Harko. The canopy won't talk  Bloody cool canopy though. Has a nice little story to it. The old guy who had it, got it built by a guy in Queenstown apparently. The plans were available from you local Holden dealer & he got this guy in Queenstown to build it. Just like a boat inside, ribbed & all. He used to use it on occasssion for sleeping in when camping/fishing. He had a scar on his forehead, from one night, when sleeping with his head down near the rear of the cab, he sat up too fast & cracked his head on that part under the rear window. Gashed his forehead really badly. Needed stiches. Rob J |
