Sweet as SunnyTim,

The great thing is you can swap rims/tyres for a different look whenever you like.

It is a fine looking original EK. :D
Love the NASCO sitting on the parcel shelf.

They are New Old Stock from the 1960's and are genuine Olympic Colour Trims. I have them in RED, BLUE and GREEN. They are port-a-walls and came supplied 5 to a box. SunnyTim scored the last set of RED that I had for sale.

Imagine having some bloke living in your town that when you drive by his house he got some freaky looking FB EK holden parked outside his house(sometimes three) I guess its nice to know that some people like to preserve such beauty in Holden. Maybe it is a disease with no cure. Keep it up Timbo. 8) 8)

Whatever the case, at least none of us a sheep. We do our own thing and we do to the best model Holden's.

I think they look shit hot - but not everyday. I have a green set for my Station Sedan and they do in my opinion look great on the car. But on the rags/crossply's handle like a bar of soap in a bath tub. Tim I say wack that flash kit on with the red anodised aluminum insert.

You only need look at that Golden Goddess FB from Port Macquarie with and without the accessories fitted. It's a yawn fest without and a true goddess when fitted.

They're all good in my eyes, even if my lenses are NASCO tinted. :D
