So it was you!!

I gathered that it had to be you..............not many people in Sydney have a similar fetish for collecting FB Standards

I presume you were visiting the panel shop across the road?

That is Centreline Smash! Sam is a top bloke if you need some work done.

Everyone would have a standard if they could afford one

I'll keep that in mind when mine's due for a respray.............he's only 1 block away from home.

I suppose it would cost a bit more to paint a Standard..........all that extra work needed to paint the bits where the Special's usually have nice shiny chrome

It was this one!

I thought it was that one, coz I remember the weather shield.

The colour looks a LOT different (and nicer) outdoors than in that photo

Just for you Steve, I went back and took a photo

Not a very good one.........

Spotted an EK 'windowless' ute at the Coburg Drive in last week at the Eric Banner movie. It is in very good original condition although the owner Rick needed a jump start to get home. There's an outside chance that he will display on the Sunday at the Nationals hopefully some other pictureless 'spottos' will be there too!

what the hell is a windowless ute

a ute with no front back windscreens or door glass

That's like a windowless sedan .... when you've taken the roof off and all glass out mick!

Should have, but we were kind of busy yakking with a few mates I don't get to see too often!

Nice looking EK though Aka.

I took Maybelleine in to get her brakes fixed today, and who should be dropping off his FB wagon, but Graham! Here they are in the driveway. The service station is real old-school so I took a pic!
