Hi everyone, a short intro from me to get the ball rolling. I feel a bit like a dog on it's back while the rest of the pack have a sniff! I am your typical family guy that has reached a point in life where some of the dreams may be able to become reality. I have had an A model tudor in storage for ever and I have just started on a chassis build. I drive a 62 Falcon on the weekends to keep the interest alive and I have a sordid past involving many newer Fords with shop bought go-fast bits on them. I have dabbled a bit in drag racing, very briefly as a competitor and a lot longer as a scrutineer and I have a deep desire to eventually join the nostalgia racing crowd. What a breath of fresh air that has become for me! I have just started a night school course on how to panel beat and fabricate body panels and I'm loving it. The aim is to build a roadster ute from a bunch of 28 - 29 bits I have laying around and when I've cut my teeth on that lot, I'll dust off the tudor and build something a bit nicer. Looking forward to catching up with a few people from the old Ravenswood days and some I haven't met yet. Cheers!
Welcome improved A to the HAMB. Where abouts in perth are you man? I also have a 62 xl falcon stock so far , but slammed with disc brakes. Are you going to the rockers rumble on sunday? got any pics of your falcon you could post?
Glad to see you found the HAMB. Don't wait too long on getting that model a out........make a hotrod out of it.........
Thats funny - I had a 64 Falcon wagon ( now passed on to my nephew ) & i am now getting a Model-A together......must be a natural progression - Welcome!
