Hi Craig, my name is Steve, recently joined .... having a blast reading this thread you go going, amazing some of the stuff that is out there. Was not that far from your area over Christmas, my in-laws have a property outside of Gunnedah and went for a drive to a property south of Carol to check out a panel van shell. It was ok, but I'm hoping to find a better one.... we have a HX Sandman van and are planning to restore it as era correct as possible. Just wondering if you know of any or could keep an eye out in your travels for a HX-HZ windowless shell please?

Keep up the good work, cheers steve

Hi,

the simmons were a great score Gene,i always have wanted a set,but have never come across some for the right price.

2wild4u,about 12 years ago i found a split window VW on a property,basicly complete,and about 8 months ago i thought i beter chase it up,and guess what the scrap metal guy i know cleaned the property up a few months before,i howled at him and he said i thought you onlt chased holdens,i now have informed him,any old cars let me know.

Stepside,
welcome to the forum hope you enjoy some of our company,and i,ll keep a look out,i will chase up a van ,but don,t hold your breath,as things don,t happen real fast out hear.I sold a van to a young fella but i don,t think anything has happened with it,and its a pearler body,no windows.

put up your wanted list and i,ll pm you,BUT numerous times i,ve lifted very heavy things sent pictures,and had no reply not even asking how much,,so don,t WASTE my time.

yeah it is,

A friend of mine was after a V8 HK monaro,and was chasing over priced shit boxes on fleebay,he wanted one of mine but i didn,t want to part with one of the family.Anyway with a bit of help from yel327 we found this white car,which has a 6 cylinder,But is actually a 307 10 bolt oridginally,the owner didn,t even know,it has been fully restored to a high quality,and he scooped it up for 38k.

we go around to properties a lot to hunt and it almost breaks me to see property dumps littered with old holdens and fords. I would love more than anything to rescue old cars!!

Sydney competition warehouse used to sell very tough rear ends with billet axles,worth at least $1500 back in the day
should check ratio and then pull an axle and see if its fine spline ,very very nice pick up

saw your new project,i,ll let you know if i come across something for your FC.

Those FE utes i stripped some time back would have been very handy for your front end rust.
