    hi all, im from melbourne victoria, australia. been peeping around here from quite awhile now, thought it was about time to come out (so to speak).

    bit about me, ive always loved tinkering with things since a young age, if it had wheels it usually had my attention. my old man has always had old cars and ive been brought up around hot-rod mags and rusty cars now its my job to make them look pretty. im a spray painter by trade and work in a normal spash repair during the week but in my spare time im trying to get my own business going, ill put some pics up of my work when i get the chance, am currently working on blue collar stu's 54 hudson which is nearing completion, also am doing a 51 f100 that requires alot of work and got a little bit more to do on a barris inspired 53 chev plus woking on my old fc holden and am about to get an early falcon wagon.

    will try put some pics up later today. also are there any good links to suicide door jobs that people have done here? need some inspiration.
