Long time viewer, first time poster. Thought I'd let you guys know I'm from Melbourne, Australia. Young, about 23 with a serious p***ion and obsession for flat black anything's on the ground. I'll also make mention I know Tim, from Ohio (Grumpy as his name) and purchased his 60's Apache from him. Pic attached. So anyway, hello guys, and girls. Regards to one and all. Dan.
Damn. I missed your intro Dan, sorry for that. Welcome to the maddness. Take care of the ol 60. It was a fun truck.
Thanks Tim, I plan on taking care of it. Restoring parts of it soon enough and I pray to God that nothing happens to the paint through the whole journey.

Welcome to the HAMB 'kid from melbourne' from another 'kid' from Adelaide...truck looks smooth, how long before it arrives ? Cheers 2nd chance premier
Thanks guys. It's here and it's been a long time coming. Got it off the boat, only to be told by the AQIS inspector (who looked under the truck) that the tailshaft had come loose. When of the caps was loose on the uni and it had come off from transit. $15 dollars later and 10 minutes of my time, it was no drama. Charged the battery, shot some cleaner into the carby, fired straight up and ran perfectly. Drove it home last Saturday in 1st, 2nd and partially a 3rd gear as the tailshaft had dropped ALL of the ****** fluid. 500ml later and it was perfect. I've attached some pics for a better view. Hope you guys like it! Dan.
Looks like you've got a bad case of colour blindness "kid"! Unless the flat black's the tyres you're talking about......
welcome, I kind of like those trucks and I kind of think their ugly, I can never make my mind up. that ones cool though. Enjoy it. oh yer, I'm sorta in my 30's.
Welcome from Minnesota. I have been to your fine town several times to enjoy the car stuff. You have lots going on down under. I am surprised at the ton of American cars that are imported there as well. Doug
