Hi Steve,
My wife Tracy has a great memory. i was showing her a picture of this great rare colored FB that Steve is doing up. She said I've seen one of them in this color before. She went and grabbed the photo album.
Way back when I was pres. I organised a run to Daylesford Victoria 30.10.1987. Every now and then you would get a person turn up who was a member of the club but you never saw them. This middle aged bloke turned up wih the same colored FB. Hje said he bought it off the original owners and he said and we agreed that we had never seen one in that color before.
Never saw him again or his car!
cheers
Paul

I checked through old newsletters, it was 88 not 87 & the owner of the Vic one in this rare color was Ken Frazer
I made mention of the rare color way back then!
Cheers

Wow! It looked in great condition. Got to love the old nitro colours.

My ex sister in-law had a sedan in the same colour. Think it's a KIA now :(

I also use to see a sedan (Oink and grey) parked on the main highway going through Albury in the early nineties.

I have a pic somewhere.

Love the combo Steve.
From a guy who hated "PINK" cars to now owning one, thats a beauty.
Cant wait to see it all back together.

Dave.
I'd rather drive something made of metal, not plastic!
