    hi all. sorry for taking so long to get to the intro bit..... been obsessed with hot rods and customs for as long as i can remember, one of my first cars was a 1965 galaxie sedan which i sectioned into a ute (pickup). a couple of years later i got a 1936 ford roadster, which i still have... its been rebuilt 3 times in the last 30 years, each time better as the skills improved. just got it back on the road december 2012 and having the greatest time cruising about. cheers. peter

    I have only recently bought my Caddy, so I am new to the scene in Melbourne.

    I now have the roadworthy in my possession, and will pick up the plates tomorrow....get the car from the workshop on Monday!

    I'm looking forward to doing some cruising. Where are you in Melbourne? I am SE suburbs.
