Hi. Thanks for the welcome messages. Although I have run a few glass 32's & 34's over the last 20 years. I lost interest in our scene for awhile. This is me getting back into something that has been in my blood for as long as I can remember. For all the Limey's, petrol (gas :o)) is now at £1.25 a ltr. I know your prices are rising fast as well. So running a V8 takes a lot a cash & interest. I live in North of UK & most of the rod scene is down south making every rod run an event to save up for. That said why should i let the goverment spoil my life long hobby & the friends I have made along the way. Better make it a big block in the next rod then :o)
Hey there 34rod i too have just joined this cool site and i`m also from the north of england,a pal of mine has just bought a model a from a dry us state and is expecting it soon so if you do go down the import route and need any advice on shipping etc gisa mail and i will put you in touch with him.We are near Manchester.....oxo
