A Holiday .... That would be nice ... I'll keep dreaming!

Hi Dave, I saw some great pics of the Electricity Van the other day ... love it!!!

Thought about you with the fires the other day. Was so scary when I had some cars and they were out at Londonderry during the last big fire.

Be great if I was out west again, I could give you a hand. Itching to work ...

Least the sticker is still there (under the body plate) warning the next painter the finish is Acrylic, not Nitro

Hi Wayne!

I am sure Dave (Bootlegger) needs another project

Steve

Hi Dr T ... finally I am well :)

Here is another one I haven't seen ...

Ridigar, not all EK Sedan/Wagon's had Snowcrest White for the roof. Although it was the most common one.

0235 in Cameo Beige.
Any strangely both my wagons have it. 0255 was a mistake :cry:

By the look of the ID Tag and the colour that remains on the car, it had been re-tagged.

Paint on Tag Seaforth Green - Colour on car ... maybe Barrier Coral.

For me, the above photo is one of the best pics I have seen on this site! Fabulous FBTim !!!

The one thing that is still there is the overhead zigzag party lights

Love the photo HK. Looking west on Beardy St, Armidale. The facade of the Old Hoyts theatre (formally the Capitol Cinema originally the Theatre Royal) can still be seen, though, mostly everything else has gone ... even the cars ...

Fantastic photo Finny, what colour was the wagon? Egyptian Tan?

Steve

That is a great find Cal. Thank you!

Tim, I have had three early standards with FC front floor mats.

Steve

I would also check your engine mounts!

Have fun at the NATS.

First thing is to find the bloody keys! I cant open the boot!! I hope my workshop manual, one door trim, and the original spare wheel is in it.

To save search time, pop the door lock out and drop into a locksmith and have a key cut.

An amazing old survivor there Marty :thumbsup:
Great to see her mobile again under her own steam.
Don't be tempted to "fully strip her and get everything totally rebuilt".
MANY a car has been lost to projects that run out of time/money/room/interest which usually end up as a pile of random parts ...
