The Plates were MY 1961 so im hoping someone has at least seen the plates.

Thanks.

School Fees..
Don't we have free education in this country.....oh perhaps not

That car looks familiar I'm sure I've seen it on here..

I think SCOOBB has it he renamed it Helenor and gave it a polish and a bit of a tidy up

All the best with the search. If you know the chassis number you might be able to do a search for it through the state department in Vic responsible for car regos.

You could also look up the forum data base that steve is doing.
It wont say who owns the car but at least its something.

[Donutvet]

fourm database,, hod do i look at that?

i tried to do a numberplate replacement for MY1961, put in all my details and it didnt say they were not mine,
but on clicking the order link, the page crashed and i couldnt get back in,
i'll try in a day or so,

Tracing via numberplate is a long shot unless they have kept the plates...chassis number is the key.

Try http://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewtop ... =23&t=4651 for the spreadsheet maintained by Steve. Can't remember exactly what page the latest one is on...probably fairly high 29-31...

If you are down Warragal way, I know exactly where it is .
The new owner is on here and has done a 6 year "do up", it's now castel green and white, looks sweet.
Not a chance in hell you will get that one back, sorry.

[Donutvet]

oh, nice,,
has he put any pics up?

would love to see it.

[Trev]

It has to be it, looking at the pic's.

Chrome glove box,
Finned "Thommas" rocker cover,
NASCO clck,

But it didn't have the louvered bonnet.

Gave it a little more than a polish

Nope not me, my filler is on the right hand side

Still have the plates, can't use them, though. Done a heap of work, but almost there. Like Trevor said, 6 years continuous work. She's a different colour now, but still a looker. Pm me if you want to see more.
