It started out as a cheap engine swap( bought the engine, gearbox, and tailshaft for $60) and turned into an all consuming challenge. You will never get that ...

g'day all, my name is josh, and am bellett mad from the young age of 15, ever since dad bought me 1 from a auction. My first car, a poo brown 67 with not much going for it. it was a car, and for the princely sum of $30 i was mobile. that one has since gone, but the passion lives on Im a bit of a ...
