EK JAY'S FB WAGON PROJECT (some color)

[Blacky]

Looking good mate, seems you have a shed full of projects there ? Make sure you paint behind the grille satin black or SunnyTim will smack your bum

[EK JAY]

Nah not my projects blacky this is my mates shed who also is into old holdens

He Let's me keep my wagon and the FB sedan there so I can work on them
as I don't have a shed at the new place yet
I also work on his cars Kind of a barter system
He has a few fx to Hz Utes cars and station wagons just no time to work on them as he works full time

And yeah will do the black out thingy
Just for young Timy

[EK JAY]

yeah Tim don't you know mate 40 is the new 20
Well that's what I keep telling myself

[rosco]

42 is the meaning of life.......living the dream!

For us, any number between 59 and 62 is the true meaning of life - surely?

frats,
Rosco

[Blacky]

that's because it's a bloody Austin

Yeah the Dailey drive is a Honda Odessy at the moment comfy and quite but just not cool

[EK JAY]

I have ended up finding a Lj torana column shift auto steering column
i did want a lc originally but this will do
I Will use it insted of the ht steering column that I have in it at the moment
Mainly because the inner shaft takes the Torana steering uni where the ht one needs a after market $
Uni I will put it in and see only down side is the ignition is on the column but I could blank it off and keep the
Ignition on the dash

[BILLY BLACKARROW]

Grind it off fill it with fiberglass and finish you won't even know it was there ,that is what I did preperation is the key though don't rush it let it shrink back before finishing.

Just thinking out loud......But I think you could do some mix & match with the HT/HG column and the Torana column and come up with what you need... The upper sections appear to be the same size?....And the lower blanking section for the floor shift cars can be purchased from Rare Spares.

For some reason I'm thinking that LC & LJ had different size uni's?
