Model Info
The more cleanly styled FB ran from 1961 until 1964. with a substantial improvement regarding rust protection. Quite in contrast to its "junky" predecessor. it was considered a solidly built. well-proportioned vehicle. It was widely exported. although sales in the US ended after 1961 when Pontiac. Oldsmobile and Buick came up with home-grown compact models of their own. consequently the FB only achieved sales of 328. 00 vehicles by the time it was replaced in 1964. (Only 13 FB cars remain licenced in UK in 2016 according to DVLA figures)
The body styling owed nothing to any US GM influence. the flat front and turtle-deck rear resembling some older US Fords. Mechanically. the main change was the option of a 4-speed all-synchromesh transmission with floor change but the previously used 3-speed all-synchro column change unit was still fitted as standard. The engine was also revised with higher compression ratio and revised manifolding increasing the power output to 49. 5 bhp (37 kW; 50 PS)
