Hi all,
My name is Andrew and I am 16. My sister and I both love early holdens and my Father took this love as an opportunity to purchase us our favourite cars. Below you will find a pic of my first car, a 1960 FB special sedan. It runs a mild 186 with pacemaker extractors, cooled by a thermo fan. Power is transfered through a powerglide. This car will soon be getting a transplant to either a v6 commodore, and a hr front end. my sister drives a lowered ek, with a 161, trimatic and sports exhaust. she thinks it sounds nice haha. anyway, please leave feedback, and any info you have on engine transplants. thanks.

Welcome aboard Andrew and sister. You've got a great taste in cars and sweet FB

Your'e certainly lucky to have a Dad like that! Have a look through some of the old posts on the forum for some info on transplants etc. I'm sure members can help too. Any pics on the lowered EK?

Regards
Stewart

G`day Andrew and Andrews sister , welcome to the forum mate, thats one hell of a cool first car you have there ! When I bought my first EK in 1982 my old man didnt want me to buy it because they were too old !
Got any photos of your sister ?

Tell your sister if thats her pink EK that she has to put white walls on it ! ,They just set it off perfectly , They are called porta walls from johns rod n custom (on the net) and I think they are around $150 . They fit between the tyre and rim so they dont wear out like tyres and they can be taken off if you choose not to have them for a change .
Low smooth and custom is the good look of the oldens

Very Nice Cars,
Hope they get the respect they deserve.
Sorry to sound like a sour puss but I have seen too many youngins flog the old cars that end up at the wreckers.
