Hi Beach Hop have not met Greg yet but like his car. I have been playing around with this old stuff for years i was a member of Rod Benders NZs oldest active car club 1957-2007 50 years but was always out of step with a banger however now i seem to be falling back into step yippy! all thats old is new eh? my cars are stock bodied but the motors and drive train just keep developing as does my interest good to be here as always for ever four
Welcome to the HAMB! Kiwi's and Aussie's are always welcome. Sounds like you got a couple of kool rides and some interesting parts. I don't know much about the head but someone here probably will.
