    I'm a life long car guy here in South Australia. As a kid in the 1960's I was interested in Hot Rods, The Drags and Speedway. In 1973 I saw a '60's built channeled 5 window '34 coupe with a flathead in a shed that was for sale I sold everything I had to get it but didn't have enough so just passed the time doing a little street racing and then ran a slingshot dragster with a Windsor and clutch-auto for years until our local track closed unexpectedly about 10 years ago. Interested in building a race car again but where do I run it? How do I fund it? Now days building a '40 Ford pick-up for the street.
    Cheers
    Tony

    Cheers Blokes. No the weather is cooler today. We are 2 or 3 degrees warmer than in the City and it was 46C and windy here yesterday (that's about 115 F). I've just about had it with the weather the last 3 years.
    Cheers
