lol. I wish.

I have a habbit of locking the fb in the rear garage, that way i can avoid driving it and she wont get wrecked, and there is no temptation to take it out in the wet weather.

mate i knew the boys and girls here had class and good taste with their cars, but who would of imagined that we would all share musical talent.

I think the clubs should be including a guitar sub section, and we can take em to the shows and rock n roll.

Love your FB Retro, the Explorer looks fab as well.

A guy traded me the FB in my avatar for a Fender Jazzmaster & Hiwatt amp. Always happy to trade guitars for nice FB Holden's .... lol.

I prefer the pastel colour flashes like yours, might paint the flash Satellite Yellow.

Man love the collection, that FB is the most, you are a very lucky man. I also love the EH wagon nothing beats old skool cool.

Oh and steve you should definantly paint the flash satellite yellow, that is my favourite colour combo.

Hi FB-W. I had a beautiful FB white with Satellite & had to sell it in 1992 (I think). I purchased it from the General manager of the RTA Rosebery in 1987, I took it for a rego inspection a month later & it got knocked back for rust in the floors.... I wonder how he got it past...lol

steve, that yellow fb did not get sold to a guy in penrith by the name of wayne?

Hi Retro, that was probably me :), I lived a Penrith then.

I sold it to ... hmm, memory loss... one of the Vella's or Borg's from Riverstone, it was being painted Twilight Turquoise, original trim was in a shed & burnt down.
