About me and my passion for cars
It all starts way back when I was born. Dad used to run Sprint Cars in the early '70's so we were always around race cars, he was an ace motor mechanic, so I followed, always hanging around the cars while they were getting worked on. Although I didn't qualify as a motor mechanic myself, I went and got an Aircraft Maintenence Engineering ticket instead. Cars are my hobby.
My first car
1970 VG Valiant Coupe (Australian version of '69 Dodge Dart)
