Auzzie kid coming to America

Hey Guys,
I'm on my way to New York, Washington DC and Norfolk for a school tour. I have always wanted to go and would like to move to America sometime when I finish school.

I have always loved hot rods and cool kustoms and I just bought a 60's ride for me to do up here in Perth.

Would be REALLY cool if I could see some American Hot Rods or Kustoms while I am there (would be the highlight of the trip). But I'm not sure what the "hot rod/kustom population" rate is like in these parts.

If anyone is around these areas and would let me check out their cars it would be really appreciated. Are there any events on or hot rod workshops to visit?

Dates are:
From the 6th-9th of April I will be in New York
9-12 Washington
12-21 Norfolk

Please pm me
Thanks
Jay

 

Jay, to bad you werent coming a bit more south!!!! Im in Atlanta,GA. More than welcome to come down if ya get a chance. ETHER

 

Have fun over there J. Too bad you can't take the EK with you

Get a heap of pics for us all over here and try and meet up with some of the other HAMB'ers out there.. they will be able to show you a hell of a time !

 

Lucky Prick, but if its a school tour they will have you on pretty tight reigns....

 

We are given lots of spare time, we learn about the subway so we can catch it ourselves so im not sure about the tight reigns pete

If I do see any hot rods or kustoms i'l take some pictures for you star guitar. Maybe i could get some wild ideas for my EK while im there. Or parts we cant get in OZ

 

if you think you'll be passing through Harrisburg PA your welcome to stop at my place

wont see them on the road , still to cold, but need to get hold of the guys that worked on hotrodladycruzr purple dinosour, thier close to dc i think

 

Nashville TN is not aywhere near Washington DC. HUGE mountain range seperating the two and a few states.

Jay, go to the "members" tab at the top and seach members by state and/or city that you'll be visiting and PM this link those who's profiles look like they might be interesting.

 

good idea, thanks

 

I'm in Norfolk. My cars are all unfinished...but I can put you in touch with some people and direct you to where the cars are. Hit me on PM with questions, I'll help where I can.

 

thanks

 

Not many hot rods in DC. there are some old cars in the museums though. Museum of American history i think.

 

I'm about 50 miles south of NYC, in New Jersey. Too bad you won't be here on Sat or Sun. we have lots of guys at the shop. Mon. to Fri, I'm in there afternoons, 3:30 to 6 or 7. You're welcome to visit, you can take a train from the city to Belmar NJ, only 15 min away. I could pick you up there.
Not much to see in the shop, works in progress, lots of dust and rust! But I DO have the Kopper Kart in my garage! And my 61 Dodge Watson painted custom, my old 55 Olds, and my 46 Chevy in progress.
