Mal's Stock FE - still the first owner |
|
|
|
Mal Owen bought this FE Special Sedan brand new in 1957, as a young man who could scarcely afford it. Nearly 50 years later, he has completed a full restoration. In its time the FE has been Mal's primary transport, towing caravans all over Australia, and was occasionally raced at Castlereagh, before being taken off the road, for a restoration - one day. Mal has done almost all the work on the car himself, and it is a great credit to him. Note it has the far less common light colour roof with dark coloured body paint scheme - the vast majority of two-tone FEs are the other way around.
