G'day from down under

**) G'day,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been lurking around the site for a while now enjoying the build threads and all the excellent content available here. I must say its one of the best sites I have come across.

I have built a number of cars (never a rod) when I was younger, mainly ozzie classics and a also a chevy powered datsun 260z :eek:

I just bought a 61 Chrysler Newport 2dr hardtop and plan on mildly rodding it. Custom suspension, crate hemi (not sure yet of HP), new drive line etc.

The plan is to do the build over the next 2-3 years; I work a 28day x 28day rotation over seas so I should have more than enough time, depending on the chores dished out by the wife . As this is my first foray into rodding you can expect lots of dumb questions from me in the future.

Cheers,

Lyndsay

good luck on your build,andwelcome to the forum. Hank

Following the build is more fun than the final product.Welcome from an ex pat Kiwi.It's funny I ended up in the US and my brother and sisters ended up in OZ.:rolleyes:

I think most of Kiwi land has relocated to oz.. Well where I live in oz anyway:3dSMILE:

From what I hear of the pay and holidays Oz sounds like the place to be!:D

Welcome!! I'm the king of stupid questions here and always get plenty of help. You have came to the right place. Enjoy!
