Gidday Ive just joined your forum and thought I would take the opportunity to put some pictures up of my 62 EK Standard, Ive had her for app: 12mths the body was already done though since Ive had her I given her a new heart (173 tricked up to a 202 equivelent) an EH rear assembly and front brakes with booster and a 2.5inch exhaust with headers. I still have a way to go but I am enjoying her already and take her up the Hunter Valley on a regular basis.
Thanks for looking, I am sure I will enjoy the forum.
Regards
Ron

Welcome Ron.
The sedan looks good mate - what else have you got planned for her? Jimmy wants to lower everything
This a great forum which doesn't sleep unlike some others. Pleanty of vital help and info with some shit stirring thrown in but don't say anything about Henry &*#@ and his cars or the F word gets scrambled, ditto rude words like $*#@ - unless you space em lol!
Looks like the makings of a good shed and the dogs look pretty cool old mates!
Cheers
Dave Mac

Thanks Guys for the welcome much appreciated. Ive still got to do some work on the interior, Ive redone the roof liner, carpets and door trims just need to finish the seats and then put a new sound system in. I am sort of at the crossroads with the gear box - I still have the original crash box but growing a little tired of it etc;
Fyi the dog in the picture is an Aussie Bulldog and I have got 7 more of them (I breed them).
Regards
Ron

Sorry for being late in welcoming you to the fold, Ron
Love the Yellow & chromies..very

L!
As for lowering it..just do it the way YOU want it. At least it'll ride nice.
Low is cool, but your car's cool to start off with.
Also nice to see another Standard Sedan added to our ever expanding family. But then again I'm bias!
Scotty.
