Hi Nick

You're at the right place for help with your project - just ask.

Good luck with it.

Hi all,
Does anybody know what badge goes in these 4 holes? The holes are above the fuel cap but below the key hole. I'am fairly sure this is a EK boot, doesn't the FB badge go above the keyhole?

Nick

You are right - the holden badge goes above the key.

Looks like something non standard was fitted.

Also might have been 2 badges - the last hole seems higher.

That looks like it could be a bootlid off an FC Special.
They had a boot lock surround and a spear out from each side.
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.

Spot on Blacky - had a look at my FC - 4 holes and the spear end holes are sightly higher then the centre holes
