Not sure about the trim. :?
Thanks Finny,

is there any way to easily see what the colour looks like? I googled it and found the colour on a HZ, is a light blue, looks like the Panel Van I've seen on this site with red wheels (not sure who owns it).

I can definately see light blue in the layers, but I thought it was on top of dark blue, then minty green!

Cheers
Greg

Hi Finny,

I used www.google.com.au and did a text-based search for "fb2106 +holden -fbekholden.com". There was one reference (sorry, not two like I said previously) to a ute with a body ID of FB2106-2668-M at "shopholden.com" which, in turn, pointed to an eBay auction in May this year. See here:

http://shopholden.com/ebay-cars/mo.php? ... 0235360636
or the eBay page it references (pictures have gone, unfortunately):
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... 0235360636

The other "M" ute (body ID FB2106-5192-M) is on this forum:

http://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewtop ... light=2106

I also tried Altavista and a couple of other search engines but didn't find anything more.

Cheers .... jacquie

Steve, love the car photos matched to the plates.
Have updated the spreadsheet for you. :D :D
It got too large so I had to split it into 2 separate sheets, FB's and EK's.
(They should always to separated anyhow) :roll: :roll:
I have you and Stogger both owning the same FB standard sedan :shock: With different colours :shock:

Some interesting trends, from the sample so far. :? :?

FB's in Adeliade repeated their main colour in the "TOP" section on the plate, where as those built in Sydney didn't. :shock:
All the Van's are still showing as Adeliade built, although no wagons. :?
All the auto's were made in Sydney. :D
Special Sedan's with auto's had an "A" at the end of the auto code.
Special Wagons had a "B", and standard Sedans had a "D" :shock:
I don't understand the TRIM codes. The two numbers for the interior trim colour combinations.
It is rare to find the same combo's on any two cars. Lot's of different mixes. :shock: :shock:
The second number in TRIM is different for FB's and EK's.
FB's run from 800 to 942, and EK's from 954 upwards.
