When you get it done, give me a yell. It may not be an FC, but Grace's ute is close enough. Will have to find a dirt road somewhere
Cheers,

i see alot of what looks like opel green where a car that was a mask and spray wouldn't have been painted, for instance where chrome on guttering would go

Yeah Mick it's been painted at least once or twice I reckon not really botherd as will be taken back to movie
Paint scheme regardless of paint code on the tag
I know the guy who owns the car and its the car from the movie he also had a couple of fb ek utes that he restored and were used in another aussie movie cant think of the name of it though .The station wagon in the back ground bloody good car fully original 2 rust holes in the tail gate about 5 cent size and rest is beautiful dont see them like this very often should be parked at my house soon 
Ok so the opportunity came up to buy this car
