Hi Michael,
Many thanks for your offer
Dave and I are catching up tommorow at Bungendore to have a look over my FB and chat about sills (well you have to don't you??)
Your most welcome if you wish to join us. This week is a bit crazy for me with work as well as rehearsing and performing a couple ...

G'day Dave & Brett,

I'm in Canberra, not often on the forum because my EK and FB are in storage in W.A. It's been quite a long time since I did any work on them unfortunately and there is a huge amount of work to be done on them. But if you ever want a spare set of hands on things I'm happy to help ...

I am with Mick on this one , unless you are capable and have a lot of time and patience the rust repair's will stuff your budget . Also , if you plan on blasting it yourself and your not experienced then you are going to have bigger problem's with the body than the rust . Do yourself a favour and ...

Hi all,

Thought I should add my I.D. plates to the list. In the order they appear in the picture here are the details as they are difficult to read in the photo. EK plate is my current project which is on here titled "EK Holden Project Perth W.A". Sydney FB plate is a spare. Adelaide FB plate is ...

So my old man wanted to help out on the resto so he said he would build the rotisserie for the car. Obviously not finished yet. Will probably have a Fafnir Bearing on top to make it nice and easy to rotate the car.

While I was on holidays over christmas I picked up a second car ...

Looks like 976 for the trim which is Armada Grey.

Haven't done much on the car but I thought I'd post the other Body I.D Plate I have to choose from. FB Special - Grecian White Body, Cathay Grey Insert, Mephisto & Chianti Red with Stardust Grey Bolsters

I'm planning to come down for a look and get some inspiration for my EK project and hopefully meet a few of you blokes.

Cheers
Michael

Nice work mate, all will be revealed once she's been blasted :shock: :shock:

All the best with the build :-)

Cheers mate, I'm hoping that the blasting doesn't reveal any nasty surprises.

man that's rusty,if you aint attached to it,and can afford to I would be searching for a better body to ...

So figured I'd just give an update on the progress (hopefully not bombarding you all with too many photos haha). Haven't had a lot of spare time over the last month so it's slow going but here's how she sits now. The rear quarters have both had the paint stripped and been sprayed with rust converter ...

Hi all.

Does anyone in W.A have a harmonic balancer puller for a grey motor that I could buy or borrow?

Cheers.

Hopefully I should be there as well. Give me a chance to meet a few of you guys and see your cars. Hopefully give me some ideas for mine.

Cheers,

Michael.

I'll p.m you couple of photos of the over riders that I have tonight.

If John can't locate his front over riders, I also have a pair of FB front over riders in good condition sitting here.
