I bought these two FB's today. Don't know what to do with them yet......

Thanks for putting the ID tags and Chassis Numbers up Tim.

Was an early Nitro / Duco colour before being painted dark Red.

May want to check whether I have these numbers right.

Thanks Steve, great info. at this stage the burgundy one is a parts
car and the cream one the resto. But who knows? Here are the details
of my ute for your data base. Body number stamped upside down.

Thanks Tim, if any have the original engine numbers, that is always a help!



FB 2106 8988 S Sydney build / Late car May 61

Chassis: EK 11531 A ~ Adelaide early chassis Nov '60 (Very unusual, may have been changed)

Trim: 528 832 Mephisto & Madison Grey

Steve, thanks again for the info. I've always wondered about the ute. The cars i bought today have J engines.
I belive these to be EJ motors. I also got 1 FB engine with the deal, could be out of the Adelaide car.
Even my ute has a J engine.

Correct on the J's

Welcome any time!

Steve

The heat has got to me
