Default Hello from Melbourne Australia.

Hi, I am a retired engineer and have hopes of slowly building a hot rod as something to in my now considerable spare time. While the chassis and mechanical part is fairly straightforward, the body and metal shaping part of it, is going to be a whole new challenge and learning experience. I am hoping to benefit from the vast pool of knowledge and experience here at the Forum to learn some new skills. Cheers, Tony.

That sounds pretty exciting Mark.
International Forums can be pretty anonymous places, and it would be great to be able to do a bit of local networking with other like minded people.

Peter, Maybe we can all meet at Mark's future planned Melbourne get together ? It would be fantastic to make a few new friends and contacts, and maybe swap a few stories and ideas over a cold beer.
