What's the chassis number for this beauty?
Leroy
Wish I could keep them all Leroy. There are some great cars available that's for sure.
Chassis is EK-2023-A ..... Guess Adelaide were busy assembling Panel Vans for the launch.

Brochure Hight!
One of the best I'm sure, though, my favourite is still the Cropper Creek Ute.

An FB-EK Museum is our dream, maybe a combined club house

Hi Mick, I think the Black EK (Mollison's) has the same weird heater knob.

Flashline kit would be nice

Would have had a Flashline if the car was a Sydney car

My EK had the same heater knob too Steve! I've swapped it for a normal one at the moment. Must have been an early run thing?!

Yeah Blacky, I was wondering if that bulsh!tting twit was still lurking around. If he is, at least he now knows what the REAL number 1 EK Holden looks like and who has it. He might even now try to at least get the colours right on his next dodgy scam car

Although it was a fake, I think that dude was claiming to have the No.1 Sydney car.........whilst this one is the Adelaide car.
Mine also has that odd heater knob. All this time I thought it was some dodgy knob the ex owner put on when the old one broke.

Steve/Mick/Tim,
I ended up with a "10c piece heater knob" like that one in my box of bits. I had a conversation with Smooth some time ago - his view at the time was that the "10c piece heater knob" option is an underdash cable pull to typically engine bay heater tap on earlier models like FE-FC.
I once had a photo of the FE-FC fresh-air heater (M32480, the one with the engine bay ducting), but lost it (I suspect that was the knob, but can't be certain

).
Cheers,
Harv
