Definantly home made!

Looks o.k but it really needs the fins to finish it off properly. Very nice ute though 8)

Heres mine, bought as is.

Definitely a home job. the side trim is extended.
Welded along it above the peak of the wheel arch.
I like the way the trim is cut for the fuel cap, like FC wagon trim.

Well done Sam for posting that pic!

That is one VERY nice ute.

Does any one know if the FC trim option has been done as well? http://images.google.com.au/imgres?imgu ... l%26sa%3DG

I'm not even sure if it could be done given the different front door etc.

Either way Woodsy's red and white, and the other one are food for thought ???

It will be interesting to see what else gets posted on this thread.

Steve - is Fin Rev doing an article on your guitars or your cars ?

Cheers

I have to say those mouldings really give the old commercials a swanky sort of line.

Anyone got a set for sale - even any sections .........

What about the FC one I mentioned in an earlier post?

Just figure because utes are so common they need some dressing up, lol!!!

is it at the scrappys at molong ? then it still might be there, they're now few and far between at molong i have a good set of eyes over there the local cop :D there's also another guy over there that's sorta collecting them, but i believe he's a little loopy lives on a kinda main road has them all out the front and very visable yet freaks out when people ask about them keeps his gates padlocked and as far as i know has no intentions of doing anything with them :roll:
