Gidday Guys, I have been looking on here for quite some time and thought it is about time I sign up. I live in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia. I am 58 years old and been into cars most of my life. My father was a motor machanic and so was my oldest brother. I never followed in their footsteps but have always played around with old cars. I currently have a 30 model A roadster with a twin carb'ed flathead, that has been on the road just over 4 years. I also have a 51 Chev sedan, which is a bit of a custom, with 59 Chev six and auto. This car was sold in Oz new and I have owned it for 20 years. Currently I am building a 31 closed cab Model A pick-up with 289 and C4. Regards, Rocky.
G'Day Rocky, I hope you have some photos to post of your Roadster as it is so HAMB friendly. Good to see you here.
Thanks, guys for the welcome. Yeah, Simon I will post some of the roadster and some of the pick-up when I get to know my way around here a bit more. Rocky.
Hey Rocky Long time no see. I remember when we used to discuss our respective Chevs - you and your 51, me and my green 54 more-door both with 235's, getting together with Phil McNally and the Raines et al. Good times back then. Mark
HOTFR8. Simon, thanks for putting up pic's. Stovebolt. Mark, hope we can catch up again soon. Maybe at Geelong,Easter. Binga. Mark, now the flathead is running OK again I hope to get down there more often. Fuzzybear, going to get time off work and go to Port Fairy Run again January next year. Might see ya there. Thanks guys for the kind words, Rocky.
G'day Rocky, that roadster looks bloody awesome, I remember seeing it a few years ago when it was in the build stage, hope mine comes out as nice as yours. Chhers Ash
