Very original with only 59,000 original miles. Paint is original in very good condition.
I took her for our first run on the weekend. A change of oil and new plugs was a very nice Sunday drive.

I am the 3rd owner. The original owner had her for 40 years and my work mate had the car 6 years. I didnt need to look over the car seems my work mate and I had been car pooling and every now and again he would bring the FB, I knew how good the car was.

After selling my beloved EH Wagon I bought the FB. A fair exchange I think!!

Thanks for all the positive responces. ForqueFC - Yep you are right, I am in need of 2 scratch plates. Unfortunatly when the original owner was getting a rego check in the early 80's he drove the car with all 4 to the garage and drove home with only two :( - some grub pinched them.

I know that EH scratch plates were hard to get, so I assume FB ones will be even harder, especially when they are most likely sold as a set. I will keep my eye out for some.

They appear on Ebay pretty regularly , quite often as incomplete sets so if you put a watch on them you should be able to pick some up pretty easily ....btw , welcome to the forum - love your wagon.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
