Nice shots devilrod.The more the merrier I think .Everyone has different cars that they want to take photos of so you get a good mix.

Got back from the Nats yesterday and really enjoyed it.Met a few guys from this forum and put some faces to names and made myself known to a few others.the whole event seemed really well organised and every one was very helpful to us( Nationals virgins).It's a pity that Sunday's weather wasn't as ...

Hi

My son sent me the link thinking this looked like my old EK. Looking at your photos I'd say it was. I painted the steering wheel and all the knobs with a white pearl when I painted the car. I painted the car back in 1992 and it was a pale blue before I started. I put FB door trims in it and ...

Going to take the old girl to Mt Gambier Queens Birthday weekend for the FB-EK Nationals so decided on a bit of a tidy up.The bonnet was all fried up and crows footed so that had to be fixed.Broke a tag of the letter 'E' removing it but managed to find a complete set at Geelong swap meet .I asked ...

Just completed fitting lowered front springs and new shocks to the old girl.The old shocks were had it!
