*** Holden EK No-1

[Aussie Bob]

what can I say but,,,WOW!

Scotty.

That's what I said when I first saw the car

[Aussie Bob]

I can understand why you had to part with a few cars to acquire this and the 'prem"

What's the chassis number for this beauty?

Leroy

Wish I could keep them all Leroy. There are some great cars available that's for sure.

Chassis is EK-2023-A ..... Guess Adelaide were busy assembling Panel Vans for the launch.

Doesn't get much better than that steve , what is the colour scheme?

Thanks EA.


Cataract Grey and Garrison Grey .... Same colour scheme as Tony Galea's EK-225-4-M

Steve

[Aussie Bob]

Are you going to lower it?
would look awesome with some mag wheels
Would have to be the cream of your collection

Thanks MJ

Brochure Hight!

One of the best I'm sure, though, my favourite is still the Cropper Creek Ute.

Very nice Steve! You need to setup a permanent display somewhere with all these old girls on show.

An FB-EK Museum is our dream, maybe a combined club house not sure.

Steve

[Aussie Bob]

Yet another I can't wait to check out
I hope you have the window down so I can take a big whiff of that 'new car smell'

I'm going to have to bottle that Stu

showoff

i guess theres nothing more to get now?
is the collection complete?
as you could not top that

Still looking for that L/H drive Mick.

Steve

[Aussie Bob]

nice car, wonder if it has an aftermarket heater strange knob yet seems to fit other than shape

Hi Mick, I think the Black EK (Mollison's) has the same weird heater knob.

Steve

[Aussie Bob]

Cataract/Garison I dont think another colour combo would be fitting of the number 1.

Flashline kit would be nice

Would have had a Flashline if the car was a Sydney car

Where is FB #1

Thanks Jeff, the thought never crossed my mind .....

[Devilrod]

My EK had the same heater knob too Steve! I've swapped it for a normal one at the moment. Must have been an early run thing?!

[Mick Jagger]

if i see it ,ill lick it,kinda strange...
Ive licked some nice car in me time,
Im not a weirdo
I only lick really nice ones

[Stygian]

He bought this one off JP 4 3/4

Yeah Blacky, I was wondering if that bulsh!tting twit was still lurking around. If he is, at least he now knows what the REAL number 1 EK Holden looks like and who has it. He might even now try to at least get the colours right on his next dodgy scam car

[Cal]

Although it was a fake, I think that dude was claiming to have the No.1 Sydney car.........whilst this one is the Adelaide car.

Mine also has that odd heater knob. All this time I thought it was some dodgy knob the ex owner put on when the old one broke.

Steve/Mick/Tim,

I ended up with a "10c piece heater knob" like that one in my box of bits. I had a conversation with Smooth some time ago - his view at the time was that the "10c piece heater knob" option is an underdash cable pull to typically engine bay heater tap on earlier models like FE-FC.

I once had a photo of the FE-FC fresh-air heater (M32480, the one with the engine bay ducting), but lost it (I suspect that was the knob, but can't be certain ).

Cheers,
Harv
