Default Another West Aussie

Hey all,

My name is Mike, I live in Perth, Migrated here from New Zealand about 7 years ago, Im a MOPAR man through and through but still have love for all makes and breeds. Mainly into muscle cars but something about rat rods turn me on as well and would love to build something one day.(Skill, time and money permitting of course!) Currently have a Valiant charger undergoing a full ground up resto in the shed at the moment and am at the stage of shaping up some of the easier panels for rust repair, I am a carpenter by trade so am learning as I go with the metal work, have purchased a few DVDs / tools etc and have just dived into it to see where I end up. Being a chippy / Cabinet maker for the last 15 odd years has given me a decent set of hand skills but as you would all know metal aint wood which has brought me here, always on the hunt for info, hints, thoughts, tips and tricks! Anyway thats about me in a nutshell, sorry to ramble, looking forward to exploring what you guys all get up to in your sheds / workshops!

Cheers
