My first Hottie & First FB back in 1986. Factory Canyon Blue, 186S, GM 4sp, Tinted Windows. I'd love to find this one again. Sold it in 1992.

Gday Steve
What a Fantastic Collection of cars you've had over the years

Thanks for sharing all these pics with us

What was done to this Marine Blue FB Special
to make it a hottie, Any specs, or engine bay shots?

I hope your pics inspire any other prolific collectors/owners
to share some of their pics with us all.

I never knew there were so many variations of flash kits avaliable.

Great Stuff

Cheers Jeff

Hi Jeff, thanks for your kind words.

The FB Canyon Blue had a 186S with 38-78 Cam, 350 Holley, GM 4 speed XU-1 Box with a 99 cluster, plus the usual legal requirements, HR disc Brakes, etc. It was my first FB, so I will always be fond of her.

I hope they do to. I have plenty of National pics to put up when I can. Also a few more of my past cars

Jeff, QLD is the Flash Capital of Australia! I was lucky to pickup a few.

WHAT!!!! You've had more cars

Maybe between yourself & Sunnytim you could do another thread
on 'FLASH KITS' the Styles & History?

That would make interesting reading

Cheers

Just a few more

I have misplaced my "Modern Accessories" Flask kit brochure, though I am sure Tim got a photo copy.

Hi Tony, we got some big fangled machine just in at work, it's almost as big as a fridge! Some sort of Fuji - Xerox. Could possibly get them better if I knew what all those buttons did
