That wheel is bonkers gorgeous! Where did you find it?

 

Saw some guy was wrecking a 520 on FB marketplace and messaged him. I also got the column shroud and gearknob which are black as well for $100 - pretty good

The Holden looks like a 56 Chevy with Crown Vic headlights and grill. Cool!

 

 

yeah FB/EK holdens were pretty much a direct rip off of chevy design which people of the time considered dated. Most preffered the look of the 62 ford falcon as it was more "futuristic" but the early fords couldn't handle the aus roads very well & got a bad wrap pretty early on

Looks like i can get my hand on a J16 locally which i would like to transplant in instead of the E1

I've found another forum post about fitting a J16 to an E1 gearbox (i'd like to keep the column shift) and all that it needs is the E1 flyweel and starter and engine mounts - is this correct?

Should be pretty easy if that's the case

I'm not positive but that sounds right. I've got a J15 with an E1 column shift gearbox, E1 starter, generator, carb...
