Hi
Just a short intro, I live in a small country town in N.S.W.Grenfell
about 400 kilometers south west of Sydney.
I'm 47 , been into cars for 30 odd years, I have re-built a few cars, mostly60's & 70's aussie stuff, played with alot of american stuff . had many years with no money or time for project cars.
IN late 2006 I was given a 1937 Desoto 4 door,needs a lot of work ,its basicaly 85% complete, the plan is mild body mods , ford running gear,
as it is cheap & i've got lots of it. L-300 mitubishi /chrysler front end,
Iwill do 90% of the work myself as money is tight & i'm not too bad at
body work & painting.(have been parts collecting & planningfor the past 2 years, I will now start, Hopeing to have it on the road by the time i turn 50 IN 20010.
I also have a few other projects 1963 compact fairlane 4 door, had this since 1983, 1962 Holden(aussie 1957 chev) a few holdens& fords.
If I continue being imortal I will finish all my projects
