Welcome to the site.
You sound pretty keen to get into it.
Which state do you live in? The reason I ask is
that rego rules, and building plans vary in each state.
They are supposed to be identical but you need to find
all the correct ways before you build. It would be a
bugger to do some serious work, and expensive to have
to re-do it due to a lack of knowledge.

Hi I'm new to the site but have been following the forum for a while. I have a 34 ford tudor and I am starting a 37 ford pickup with 5.0 efi windsor which will be a cross between 35 to 37 and I am hoping to get some info from those who have done it before.

Welcome Bob.
We would love to see pics of your cars and buildups. 'Cause we
do love pics.
Tell us where you are and someone from here might live nearby.
Then it is easier to work out places and shops that you might be
able to visit for ideas.

Hello rodders!, My name is Dave and I'd like to introduce myself.
I live in Sydney and have just picked up a old 1940 ish ford ute project to have some fun with. I've recently done some searching on the net and this forums looks like a good place to be on.
I'll get some photo's up and love to get some input to my ride!!

Welcome Mike.
Don't really need computers on hotrods and dragsters, but using
this one is a bonus to meet new people.
And talk to the ones you already know.
Tell us more about the dragsters and rods.
We would like to know more.
By the way which state are you in??

Hi all! My name is Christian and I'm currently building a 1940 Ford Pickup. Halfway through the chassis work, Independent front and rear, airbags an LS2 6.0 litre and auto so it should move along quite nicely! I'm chasing a full set of steel guards and bonnet(dreaming I know!) at the moment so I'll be posting up in the wanted section very soon. I'll also throw some photos up as soon as I get a chance. Cheers!

Welcome Kees. Quite a few threads on that subject already in the contruction section, so will get plenty of info. :)

Hellooo!! I'm Ned.

I'm stoked to have finally found somewhere I can get some tech on my particular build a custom Chrysler royal Ap2.
I have owned three royals over ten years, "Good old piece of Australian history" I look forward to learning more and sharing progress of my build maybe I can help others to.
