Sorry, *Fabre.

I spoke with them on the phone as their website seems to be directed more towards wholesalers.

They are in Sydney.

Hey jimmy, they are Lancer caps... Kinda hard to track down in 14".. they weigh a ton. Bullet caps are a later addition, just for that extra length ya know?
Cheers, Paul
59 Dodge Lancer to be exact! :wink: Also known as "crabclaws" on some sites. There are a couple of suppliers in the states that do them in 14's but as Paul said they can difficult to find in that size. Wev'e got the same in 15's for the vette and have been considering 14's for the FE as an alternate to the flippers. They're a very nice hubcap, as Paul would know!

And before I forget - like your ride Paul! :) Hope you get plenty of years and miles of enjoyment from it.

G'day Paul

That is one beautiful car mate and a real credit to your vision for what it was going to become - something to be very proud of and a sure show stopper! Speaking of shows, will you be bringing it down to the Holden Day (in the main area, not parked outside, of course!)?

As for the hubcaps this ebayer in the US has them as repro "hubcapkingdom" currently for sale through evipay at $249.95US plus shipping which to OZ might be a tad scary.

As for that two finger business? I had to read that a couple of times but I guess sometimes two fingers are required to get things going, lol!!! You know the SU's have a spindle underneath to raise the slide instead of sticking your fingers in?

Enjoy that car while we enjoy the pics!

Just to let all know, Paul and I have cleaned out the garage of all the leftover parts :shock: and have made a list.
I have placed a post in the Parts for Sale area listing everything we have left.

Holdens and fords use the same interior lights, have a look at some later cars like VP or vr commodore, it will probably have &*#@ ea-eb stamped on it under the cover
&*#@ Ltd P5 to FE (86) models, statesman caprice up to WB, commodore sl/e, vk calais have the chrome ones with the map lights, after that the local luxury cars just got crappy plastic ones.
