Welcome aboard, love to see some pics

Hi Guys,

The car is originally from Tamworth. the car was purchased from a friend who was the second owner prior to me buying it. He owned it for around 9 years and i purchased it late last year. I have tried to down load photos , not sure what happened, not to say how long it was all taking.. will try later, I actually looked at the yellow FB that was for sale in Port around 3 and half years ago, No guys not the same car... Mine has a few assessaries and i am slowly gathering more to add, The front saet had been retrimmed at some stage, I have acquired a camping seat i will try and match to the original back trim ( will be hard to get somthing close to the green fleck , but will look better then whats there) Always wanted the camping seat.. Just bought 2 eks with a bit of rust and a heap of spares to get the camping seat and clock...One is a Auto has a sterring lock and sun visor ect.. a few bit of spares, I have to cut one up to obtain a parcel deck for my FB. Will keep all posted, will have a heap of spares if decided to strip.

Hi Steve.. sure is the car, but still not convinced its the same car that was in port macquarie for sale as i veiwed the port macquarie car 4 years ago, as i was comparing the two cars on prices. They look the same, but not the same car.

You are right! Your car was owned by a lady in Tamworth. The original Number plate was GAL ### Mrs Edwards.

The FB was parked out side at the Tamworth Nationals in 1992.

Here are some more pics...
