G'day , good to be here,

Just joined this site

About me , im a Boilermaker by trade (30 years),Im in Melbourne Australia

I love any thing with a good motor and sound

My day to day veheicles are a 2001 Ford Falcon ute (xr8) and a Buell bike.XB12Ss

As for my intrest here , I've got a 1946 Ford truck to play with,and I just picked up a 1972 F-100 that had been fully rebuilt 2 years ago(for LPG), but was stolen and burnt out

So I have all I need to build something nice

351 clev's x 2, FMX Auto, 4-speed Top Loader, 9" diff and a 2-speed Eaton diff [

Welcome to the site. Nice looking project, and a shame about the Ford.

Welcome to the RRR. I like your plan. That should make a nice rod. Always nice to meet a person from outside the US. Post pics when you make progress, we love updates.

Wow!! I'm diggin the '46 truck with the hood still on it. I think that's a killer look if you can pull it off.

My plan is to section the hood about 4" and put the original mouldings back on

I wanted to run duallie but the motor would have run at 4000 rpm at 60 mph (2 speed Eaton diff)

So im using the drive line from the F-100
