Forgive me father for I have sinned ......

Post by Blacky »

............... its been 8 months since I last bought an FB/EK :ebiggrin: :ebiggrin: :ebiggrin: :ebiggrin:


So I figured I better do something about it - may I present our newest addition ........

Image
originally a cameo FB215 , was painted and customised years ago on a local TV show over here called Cruisin
Image
runs a mild 186 and a 5 speed
Image
Has seen better days but is a bit of Perth history so not too much will be getting changed, just a tidy up.

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Murrays old cruiser! Remember watching that episode. Needs to be brought back to look like it did when it was first done.

Great that it has been saved Blacky but I think you are going to have to think about a bigger shed bud :yeahhh:

Hey and I say on one of the other threads you need a steering box for your ute I have a column and box at home that I got with my ute don't know how good the box is but you can have it if you like.
