Hi,
After much searching and help I have finally picked up a FB Sedan. I had forgotten what a pleasure it was to cruise in an old car. I owned a EH 20 odd years ago.
She needs a little TLC still , generator not generating , trim needs some work and a bit of dodgy respray. The previous owner stripped all badges, I would like to fit a bonnet ornament and a few other bits. But still presents ok. The welcome so far has been warm and seems like a great community here already and hopefully I can add to that.
Regards
MATT

Hey Matt,
That looks like a good score there. Hope you get plenty of trouble free miles!

I'm not really sure of the whole history, is there any way to check back past the previous owner?SunnyTim wrote:Love to see some more pics I have narrowed it down to one of two cars I used to know - one owned by a mate in the early 90s and another by a club member around the same time (sorry Blacky haven't owned this one. ..)
Will try to get some more up today.. As with most as I found out when looking to purchase, the images make it look a whole lot better...Devilrod wrote:Looks good, got any more pics?
My first plans are to get it running reliably and have some confidence in her, generator is not generating at the moment. then front seat needs work as does the door trims. Then windows seals and runners especially the 1/4 which I can't open due really perished seals. Then some origonal rims to get rid of these mags.plus I'd like to fix up a few spots of paint that are bad.Some new carpet as well..oh dear I have list already..
