Over here in Aus, we have the benifit (I dunno if benifit is the best word but anyhow) of having a wide range of cars, of Aussie origin, American origin, and finially Pommy/English origin, maybe more so (??) than the states.
Because our Rodding scene is closer to the US one, English cars are usually kept for the 'sport car' crew. There are however many which have gained respect (?) usually on the Drag strip in the 60's, ie the Anglia, and Fiat Topilino etc.
byt there are many other less desireable ;even still today; motor cars.
There are the likes of Ford Zephyr's of the 50's which may be Kustom fodder. But there are still many other 'unlikely choices' around, shure many have been done, but over here if it's not American, then 'it'd better better be good', before it'll get accepted. Many of these cars were 4 cyl or 6cyl from factory, so this also helps one understand why they aren't so popular (yet).
It'd have nothing to do with style, or oil leaks would it??:lol:
Like Bob was sayin in his "Dare to be Different" thread, there is nothing new under the sun, you may not realise it that's all.
