greetings from tasmania

Howdy folks , just a quick intro so when i ask some really stupid questions , everyone will forgive me
Anyway im a mopar man and have rebuilt a 69 2 door australian Valiant , so now im onto another project which will be sort of Chrysler related .
Im thinking of a T bucket looking thing , not really too sure yet and the parts collecting has only just started , but hopefully there will be some advice from these pages that will reduce the stoopid mistakes and help my build turn out a ripper

cheers Ben

G'day Ben, I grew up in Tas, leaving in 98 and heading straight to QLD. I actually drove up in a 245 powered 54Dodge truck! I'm a MOPAR man myself, had a 62 S series for years, the Dodge truck and am about to power my next rod with a 225 slant!
There are plenty of top guys n gals in Tassie who will help you with your build. Where are you from? My car building years were spent on the North West coast and am a member of the Rumblers in Hobart.
What sort of parts have you got/are you looking for? What sort of skills do you have to enable to build the car?

Cheers
Andrew

That's a sweet Hardtop Ben, top job. I think you will do just fine with the Bucket idea if the Val's any indication.

Cheers
