I am seeking a FE-EK donor body. Rusty is OK. What I am seeking is basically front cowl area including dash and some front doors. Rusted floor or sills is OK - as I wont be using any of that. I dont need front guards or rear parts - just the firewall/cowl, windscreen posts and dash. This is for an upcoming radical custom project. So far I have tracked down a free EK wagon - but its so badly rusted its completely useless....although I may still grab it for small parts if it hasnt gone to the scrappies yet.
Cheers streetneat-Andrew.

Gday Sunny Tim
Yep - Smash Palace to be precise- they made the movie there of the same name starring Bruno Lawrence. Its chockas full of old cars- the biggest old car wrecking yard in the known southern hemisphere. Its actually my only real hope of scoring what I need. I thought I would try the forums first - you never know unless you ask! The cars there are quite rusty and expensive I'm told. I will do a trip down there and take loads of pics and upload them to my website.
Its an overnight trip and I would like to get down there this year at least to satisfy my curiosity. I'm still trying to stay focused on my renos here so I can play cars later. I thought I would at least put the word out in case something came up...

Gidday mate, Have a look under the old tin thread and see if the fire wall and dash are any good to you. Shes fairly poked but may be alright for what you need ?. Daz.
