Hey guys, Im an Aussie Mopar lover. Im 23 this Year, I own an Australian A Body Variant.. 1973 VJ Ranger which im Doing an OEM Custom with, mixing and matching parts fro different models to build the car i want, with a few custom additions. This is my Car when i was my Daily Driver...its been off the road now for close to 8 month. First Major Modification which i Completed to the car was Upgrading the front brakes as I plan to go fast Pulling the Heart out of Old Faithful and thats the Old Engine and Transmission (No. 8...but whos counting ) Cheers Nathan
Welcome. But that car is too new for this board by a long way. Unless of course there's another project you're talking about?
well once i get off my P's and stick an 8 in the old gal i was thinking of building a rat rod with the hemi 6 as the heart.
Hang on, you need to get more familiar with this site. Talk of 'rat rods' will catch you hell. This place is for traditional hot rods and customs. Some folks have difficulty in getting their brain around that and want a one-size-fits-all approach, but there are plenty of other sites for that. Just a heads up. p.s. the Australian 6 has been discussed a lot, a seach should turn up plenty.
well it was going to be made with Mopar Only Components if that makes a difference? im keeping my eye's open and wallet abit cashed up trying to find a 50's Mopar
G'day and welcome. Like others have said not only the term Rat Rob but the Rat cars are strictly taboo on this site!! I have a real soft spot for Aussy Mopar, something from the 50s wouldn't be too hard to find, though that would have to be 'Custom' as Hot Rod apples to pre 48 cars. Though I would LOVE an AP-6 Ute for a daily driver, or a VG Wagon..... Doc.
