It would be extremely hard to believe that this would be the 'only one in the world' all you have to do is google it and there's dozens for sale.

Average price I found for a drivable 66 Oldsmobile 98 good looking car was $10k US.

Nice try

yeah it would be great to start on it now but i have too many other projects and not enough dough to do the lot so I guess the best that I can do is at least get it out of the weather. I was speaking to a mate who says the Vauxhall utes were all 55 bodies with later stuff added on so it looks as if ...

Jim, What an absolutely superb piece of metal your car is, I personally think that some people make the mistake of trying to make old tin into a modern vehicle with modern paint colours and silly looking wheels that just don't suit the car but in this case those wheels and the colour are outstanding...

G'day all, Came across this vauxhall ute in a paddock and was wondering if anyone knows about them, are they rare or unusual in Australia as if they are I will try to get this one out of the weather. It looks 99.9% complete and even has the key in the ignition. Last registered in 1976, the pictures ...

Regardless of that, great job on the research mate, I know where there is a bloke near Wodonga Vic who is trying to get rid of a heap of old cars as well as an FB wagon (pretty sha...

Dave, I thought it came from an EK, it seems to match the door trims but yeah it looks like it has that double white stripe down the centre. Although this car has been in the family for over 30 years I joined the Army 21 years ago just after we did the EK swap over and my brother drove it for one or...

Thanks Guys, Bex, there were no FC autos, the first holden auto was the EK, so unless you can find a modified one you will be out of luck. The interior has to go because I want Betsy to look like she did when she rolled off the assembly line. I think that interior came out of an EK special, from mem...

G'day all, I though I would chuck some pictures of Betsy up on the forum. She's been in our family for about 30 years and started life as a Colleen Green FB standard sedan. Over the years she has gained a few bits of chrome here and there and a different interior, a red motor and a few other things....
