Wayne Jackson's FB Reefshell Coral Sedan

Post by Aussie Bob »

Very Rare FB Colour "Reefshell Coral" with not so rare Rust!

Wayne purchased this one on ebay & was taken :evil: . It owes him too much to scrap.

Anyone like to do the rust repairs? I will get some pics next week. Needs inner & outer sills & some other sections.

Be great for someone to help save it as it is such a rare colour. It already owes Wayne $5,000.

it looks pretty good to me, well worth saving if all it needs is sills. it might pay to check the floor pans as well

Honestly if you and your mate Wayne are considering / were considering scrapping that.. because of a bitta rust.. you would of shit yourself if you had seen my EK when we first got it.

Go have a look at my buildup and you'll see mine had much worse rust than that one.. At least that one looks presentable.

I'd say go for it and finish it off.

Thanks Nick, we will take a look.

It just depends on tipping the money into to repair it, when someone who is crafted in metal work can do it in their own time.

Yes Steve,
although our models are getting a little difficult to find, I would be very hesitant to make bids without a good lookover - unfortunately there are thoses who use this vessel as a source of disposable income.................at our expense......

Great colour - and yes, it's one as an original, to add to our collective.............

your pix of the modified EK's - mine is the Tartan Turquoise/Snowcrest White sedan HKJ - 054......... you had it titled as ???????

frats,
Rosco

ps great pix - how do you get so many up so soon..................... have read another avatar titled "sleep when I'm dead"............

Ouch! Thats pretty bad Steve. Shame but I guess buyer beware with eBay. It really does pay to go and look first. Unfortunately the more "dishonest" have found eBay a great place to play...

Yes DR, It was a five thousand dollar lesson for Wayne. The guy was very convincing and a master at dodging questions :) Have a look at his ebay picks at th start of the thread :(
