Packard style

Post by Sunny Rob »

Hi FB-EK fans.
I've been a visitor to this site on & off for awhile now so I thought I would sign up.
I've noticed some interest in my old (departed) custom EK, & on custom tail lights. I make the origional bullet style tail lights, & will be doing another run of them soon.
I would like to do a full history with pics of the custom, plus some shots of the first nats in Wagga, but for now heres a rear shot taken at the Dubbo nationals.
Cheers, Rob Walker.

Welcome Rob to the forum,

I'll put my hand up for a couple of sets of bullet lenses if you are doing another run of them.
I can't think what to write here so this will do.

Gday Rob, welcome to the forum :wink:
I had put together an 'Out if the Past' feature of your car, to post on here
similiar to others I have done. ( I'll pass on what I had)
I had asked Tim to get your permission to do so, but your here now anyway, so I'll let you do the honours.
Great to have you aboard 8)
Cheers

Thanks Jeff, I'd like to see what other pics of it might turn up. Sadly when this car was around the sayings were " what a waste of spare parts, why would you bother & whats a custom". But with that there were the few that understood.
