4 by 108 stud pattern ??? What's that ? FE to HG pattern was 5 x 4 1/4" pcd,HQ to WB was 5x 4 3/4",all commodores 120mm pcd.

My first car was a orange and white roof EK. It still had the plastic on the door trims and seat. It just loved oil and also to boil. Sold it for three hundred bucks in 1972.

Nice 👍. Found your channel via a link on a Facebook ad ..

As long as you don't do any cutting or do anything that won't allow it to be returned to stock. Almost 50 years old, rare, and basically a museum piece.

Great pick up Don. She sounds great.

There is one in WA with a 3.8 VN V6.

Thanx for hanging shit on my XC wagon!

Wow - all done in one shot 😁

It was a great show

I love the twin system, maybe quiet it down a bit. I would of cut the commo diff down. Eh diffs aren't strong.

Lovely ol girl. I miss my hr I had. Video of it on my channel

Try and stick with 3 speed column shift if possible bench seat back in the more original the better well done so far

I bought an FB in 1977 for $50. Pretty much the same as the EK but for a few upgrades. Electric windscreen wiper motor was a plus over the vacuum effort. The grey was a slug and the body roll was a roller coaster. You’re lucky you got a rust free one. Really hard to find even after only a few years the hood over the lights would rust and the floor and the guards and…pretty much everything else. The brake slave cylinders had factory standard leaks. As a car they were really basic, but the masses loved them and Holden couldn’t get ‘em out the door quick enough. My Dad used to work on the line when they were doing the early Holdens and he fitted the doors. The cars would come down the line with the doors hanging or if he was lucky they actually shut. To get the doors to shut and the shut lines near equal Dad had a steel wedge and a 2 pound ball peen hammer. He could look at the door, open it, jam the wedge in the hinge aperture and belt the wedge until it bent the hinge just so until the door shut to specs (that weren’t that fine). If you look at the hinge aperture you might see a crease where the wedge bent the steel. The next bloke would then fit the door lock plate and adjust it so the door shut and locked. I think GMs were going for the 57 Chev look, but it did look anorexic. I agree ditch the buckets. I got a soft spot for the FB/EKs.

man it looks the part particularly the twin exhaust yumm i used 14,s by 8 on the back of my fc it sat like yours

The shifter out of a ute or one tonner will fit with a bench seat, it has a bend that goes around the seat.

Nice old car mate. I guess you are chasing the old "hotted up" look? Very tidy old girl to use as a base. She is/will be a cool ride.

i have a Ek 61 sepcial sedan. had trouble here in noth QLD getting hold of 13 inch tyres. i ended up doing flipped centered HT 14 inch rims but went to 60 walled Tyre. doing it that way my speedo stayed calibrated. no scrapping or rubbing. running hr disk front end. cheers. beautiful sedan mate.

Nice mate, stick with ya plan , you’re doing well. At least you have a solid clean car, they’re only getting harder to find. ✌️

Thanks buddy , the car looks good , why don’t you like the exhaust, twin systems are nice on the six

That's real nice mate

Nice looking car.

Lucky the front bench seat came with the car Would be ok if you could find a original 4 speed shifter out of hz one toner Great car

Great job mate, that’s my little red Fiat 500 F . Was a nice surprise seeing it on your footage ❤

Excellent work my friend. Thanks for stopping by the Volvo Club display. Hey I would have been bored looking at them too. So much great other stuff to look at.

Looking great mate. It's amazing how the wrong wheels can make a car look so bad yet the right ones can make it look sooooooo good.

Good work mate. V jealous. You'll get no respect as a yoo toober until you start with each vid with yo mate what up or similar. Talking normally is just weird..... Do it again and you'll get your first thumbs down. You have been warned!
