Hmm, I wonder why the wiring harness is taped in blue?

OK! :shock:

I have never had much to do with "Poverty Packs" you learn something new everyday!

.....and for my next question WHY?

Yeah OK that's plausible but really the only difference was the indicators in the loom from what I can remember and even that varied from state to state in the early releases.

So are we saying that "all" commercials had blue taped looms?

All very interesting.

Guys,
when i stripped the van for the rebuild all those years ago the loom was taped black "61 Sydney Van".The blinkers fitted were after market type and i'd have to drag old original harness out but i think blinker wiring was complete from factory up to terminal block on inner guards on front not sure for rear.Will have to dig out and check one day!!

Just like everything with holden so many variations.

My Sydney built FB Standard Sedan ( Lucerne Blue ) has a black loom.

Good to see more pics of Sebs original Standard up here again.

I can't think what to write here so this will do.

I wish I still had the Cameo 215 EK (Jenny's) that I sold back in Feb 1995.

A girl called Jane purchased it from Surry Hills in Sydney. I would love to buy it back after seeing this one. I have never seen that car since.

I loved the Red standard EK trim with the FB fleck running vertical.

Beautiful car Seb!
