The Vic club will be heading up Saturday on our annual trek. We will be catching up for dinner on the Saturday night at the Peppermill restaurant and heading off to the swap early Sunday morning.

The guy who lives accross the road (has 2 EK's in mint condition) told us about it. apparently he is pressing some new Escutcheon's for FB and EK door handles. to sell there, amongst other things. (Apparently our ute was one of his previous customers for the door scuff plates)

can't remember, (I'm awful with names and only met him twice)
but he's a shepparton local, with a Green EK Sedan numberplate starting with FOO- and the other car is a light pink EK wagon, with a very customised engine.

:thumbsup: Sam has been most helpful, looking at the EKs and the quality of them I think we're in good hands :thumbsup:

Daniel, Sam offered to show us his book of FB colours, wouldn't hurt to go over there and ask him later to take a look at it verify I've read the colour codes correctly so I can keep an eye out for the right colour for the interior.

TRIM: 514-832 (red?)
PAINT: 585-9699 (grey?)

be sure to write the correct colours down you'd be surprised how many different shades of colours Holden has!
