Hey Leon,
Was wondering the other day what happened to the FE from Trundle thread.
the last pics I saw were the guards etc stripped.
hubcaps?
Nice resto
Cheers
Ed

Great job Leon! The car looks fantastic. I actually like it with no hubcaps and the whitewalls. All you need to do now is drop it a couple of inches lower Regards, Ben.

G Day and thanks to all who responded to this thread. Its been a while though and at the moment I'm having the upholstery done by John Denniss. The original upholstery was not the best. I found an upholstery supplier in the USA and got the closest match possible to the original and it comes very close. Once this is done and I put the hud caps on and a few other things plus rego then it is finished. I think around August.(I hope). Again thanks fellows. Regards. Leon

Hey Leon, I have been waiting for this moment for a while, I knew you would do a fantastic job. The car looks very nice, it certainly will be strange to see you driving something with blinkers Is it the same colour as your standard? See you at AHD. Cheers, Craig.

Leon, Your FE looks sensational!! Looks as though some long hours have gone into the resto, cant wait to see it at Mt Gambier. Have you thought about dropping it an inch or 5?? (just kidding!!)

Great car Leon. I'm doing a FE standard in the same colour. Pity it's a standard it'll never look as sharp as yours, but I still can't wait to finish it. Love that green. Theo

:)G Day and thanks for your comments. In reply to Craig yes mate its the same color with the roof Bermuda green. Theo, there's nothing wrong with the standard. I'm not sure wether you have seen mine or not? if you I can post a photo of it. The standard is a great car even without the trimmings there's not to many of them around. Rusty I'm sure if your doing all the work on your wagon its going to be just great mate. Here is a photo of the engine bay. Regards. Leon
