I dont think I have seen this thread before ?????

EKFANPAUL , that pink EK used to live in Leinster, a town about 350km north of Kalgoorlie. He hit a roo in it and had a hell of a job getting the flames redone


my ute before -


and after -


my first one , Shake Rattle and Roll



My '57


my '46


The Monaro


and the Harley

Hey Blacky,

was "Shake Rattle & Roll" a copy of the Gazard Boys EK out of the movie Running on Empty?

No - it was the original.

I can vouch for that. the car in the photo is the Real Mcoy!
Tony.

Yeah, I wish I had that Pink EK back. I re-did just about everything on the car and she went well

If just for the fact that John Katsanis did the flame job on it for me - and frenched the aerial amongst other little things
I remember John saying 'Leave it to me" - everyone loved the flame job. A couple of 57 chev owners copied it after they saw the color scheme.

The gauge panel in the top of the dash was made by Ansett Aircraft Engineers in a 'quiet moment'

Rod Hadfield did the 4 speed conversion / and the seat mod. in it too

Parts bought for me (When I was broke and used it as a back-up car to get to work) by good mate who has been deceased since 2001

So there is a lot of mine & Aussie history in that car

Gents,

This is a good thread, can we revive it with cars as of today ?

I’ll get the ball rolling.

Dug this one up from the 60s

Good one GPI.

Thanks for adding.

Ric.

My Ek ute. I have done a few improvements since these were taken.

Regards
Stephen

That’s a beautiful looking ute Stephen.

The AJS looks awesome as well, yours?

Ric.

Here's mine

Hmm. Why is it upside down? Anyone know how to fix that?

Right way upon my screen Sarge. Very nice wagon.
