Hey guys,

Just thought I'd show a few photo's of the pickup I sold to help finance the FB. Was a nice colour.

Very nice car Malcolm, would have been a hard decision to let her go... Can I ask what sort of $$ a 68/69 is worth in that condition..?

Nice Pick-up you had to let go, Mal
Oooo, you do like RED

I love all of the Billet on that, looks like a very classy ute Where is it now?

Hey Guys,

It was a nice ute and looks better in photo's than up close as it had the typical American paintjob. All the interior stuff was new, new glass, rubbers, everything. Problem was it was all fitted then masked up to paint leaving paint edges on rubbers, things like that. It just needed a real good tidy up. The bloke who bought it has stripped it down to body off chassis doing a rebuild. He's fitting an injected 454 into it and it now sits on 20 x 10's on the front and 20 x 13's on the back.

Smooth, you are one hard person to please aren't you. I wish I could say your car looked like shit, but I can't, I love it.

I paid 24K for the ute in this conditionfrom a bloke on the Gold Coast, and sold it for close to the same money to a guy in Kingaroy here who also has to many toys.

The speaker pods were in it when I bought it and are a moulded plastic. I've seen them advertised on ebay somewhere in USA. Now that you have said that, they are very close to the shape of the FB/EK kick panels and could probably be cut down to suit. Will look into that.

Cheers

you must really like FB/EK's
PAINT YOR CAR RED if that's what you had decided, it's YOR car i reckon it will look flash, i only wouldn't paint it red cause i don't like red and it's not mine or anybody elses but yors to decide

This is the last car I got the shits with and sold before I finished it. Everything was done, just needed pulling apart, painting and trim. It was at the stage where I could get in and drive it around the block. It was in storage for 12 months while getting a house built, couldn't work on it so it was gone. That when I bought the Chev ute.

Malcolm, I remember watching that for sale (on ebay from memory) and you were giving it away if I remember correctly... I'd have scooped that if I had the $$$, thats next on the list....

Yes the things you do hey. Thats one thing I do regret selling.

It was a very quick clevo though. I had the motor in an old XC, very very quick, had lots of work done to it.
