Ute/P Van front mudguard deco strip

Post by fraze »

Just wondering----FB standard sedans, utes and panel vans all seem to have been fitted with S/steel deco strips on the front mudguards however with the EKs i notice that a few have the deco's but not all. What is it with the EK? were the deco strips a dealer fitted option of a later owner fitment? Thanks, Fraze

According to the parts catalogue all FB & EK, except Special sedan & wagon have the same front guard mouldings from the factory. The part numbers are 7412661/7412662.

Could it be that many of these cars had replacement front guards in their working life (i.e. lots of prangs) & the panel shop just didn't bother to refit new mouldings.
