Hi Everybody,
Great to finally join the HAMB, My name is Peter and I am from Hamilton, New Zealand.
My current ride is a 1973 Cadillac Miller Meteor 3 way load Hearse.
I also have two projects, I'm 75% done on a full restoration on my 1970 Dodge Monaco 4 door pillarless 440, 727, 9" and about 50% done on my 1936 Hudson Terraplane rat rod project 371 blown 283, glide, jag rear.

I look forward to meeting you all

Cheers
Peter

Welcome from a fellow kiwi. There's around 25 of us on the Hamb. The Dodge and Caddy are a bit new for this place, but the Terra will fit right in. Just some advice, please yourself whether you act on it..... "rat rod" is not an accepted term here, we're "traditional". Spend some time getting the feel of the place before posting. Hambers will tell ya in no uncertain terms if they disapprove of anything, hence the reason to get used to the joint first. This is a wonderful place, you will learn shitloads, and you will get to know some pretty cool folks.

Wise words and good advice from my friend rocakabillybassman. Nice to see someone is looking after the newbie Kiwis ;)

Hi Ratman,
as an exiled Kiwi (from Hawkes Bay and Auckland) now living in the Bay Area (CA) of USA, it is great to hear that you guys are still keeping the sport alive over there. I used to run with a rod club out of Morrinsville ( I remember Devlin's "Wild Honey" 1940 Ford, of sorts)~ way back when, and the technology and innovatiosn that you guys have come up with is terrific.
Keep up the great work guys~
