Holden EK hydro wagon

Post by Sunnymick »

Hi all. Thought I start a thread on my EK wagon. 1962 EK hydra matic wagon. Bought this 18 months ago and have kept it stored at my cousins up at Warwick. Runs and drives stops and starts has log books original purchase receipt and most of its rego forms.

My plan for this is just to tidy up and club rego. What I need to do is-
Front floor plans
Repair guard tops
Tailgate lower rust repair
And a few other minor rust spots
Mechanical wise exchange all brake components, tune up flush radiator etc etc.

Hi fb delivery that would be great if you have any other history/papers on it I will have to catch up with ya sometime. Parisian62 my cousin a &*#@ guy has truly fallen in love with FB-EK's and we have years of cars to deal with now which is fine it will keep us both off the streets. My cousin recently got yet another FB. Two tone blue and not bad for its age

bought quite a lot of stuff this week for the wagon got the floor pans new carpet, whitewalls, blinds and few other bits. My plan is to try and deal with the paint and put a few touch ups around it. Mechanical overhaul repair rust and get her motoring.
