hey guys, how's the f/m/j scene treating you?

guessing your picking up projects for the price of 5 boxes of beer everywhere but Australia hey

my first experience with Russell (the slightly overweight dodge named after the kid from deadpool with the ass pen) was a reasonably priced 360 car down here that had an auto give up trying to get it home due to a kickdown linkage being removed before my time with it,

Auto rebuilt, then it busted the collet off a valve and destroyed the block on the way home from rego.

flash forward to trying to negotiate the price of a carboned up tired old 360 with a chap that wanted no less then drug money for what he had and I started to get stubborn



in goes a motorhome 440, and auto rebuilt and converted to sedan output shaft.

the 45 82 turbos were another split decision after trying to fit headers between the block and inner guards.. and here we are buttoning up the last few bits, trying to get this mess of a car to a drag and drive event on the 21st of this month..
