Hi there, Neville here from New Zealand, been into ol' cars for a very long time it seems, have a 40 ford coupe just with flatmotor and dropped a bit as my next driver, a shed of projects and all day of most days to rat around on them, ocasionally I have to do some farmwork to pay for them too, dont do work easily, unless on my cars. I have a 55chev s/coupe awaiting a 409 and richmond box, a 55 chev convertible that was part restored but has a 348 and muncie waiting for it soon, also a 40 ford convert that I would like to just upgrade running gear and drive as is, no shiny bits, and a few others in waiting. Will post some pics soon as I work out how to use these new fangled digital contraptions that take a likeness of things. Have browsed this site for a while and think its the best, dont bother surfin anywhere else now, thanks for lettin me on.
elcome aboard Neville, sounds like a good collection of cars there, Nice part of the world to be living in too...... hope you enjoy it here, might catch up at Muscle car madness next year.
looks can be deceiving in a photo, its got plenty of travel rash, s****es 'n ****ches but I'm not in a hurry to flat paint it, maybe wear the paint thru a bit more yet, insides amateur upholstery in brown corderoy, hmm.
Still beats most of the things I've seen around here that are described as "beaters", having a floor pan qualifies it as "mint".... What part of the Sounds are you in, I used to love going up that way.
Hi Burbanite, I'm in the Kenepuru Sound in a place called Broughton Bay, one of the few places left with cattle stops in the road and no fences, less time needed to fix the damn things then, more time in the shed, yay.
nah, cattlestops are sunk into the road, judderbars are bumps above the roads arent they, but my rickity ol cattle stops still make you judder anyways, makes the ol ladys udders judder even better, cheers.
