Default G'day, another Aussie wanting to learn...

Hi all,

My name is Andrew, although most people just call me Drewfus, I'm 39, from the Hunter Valley in NSW Australia, have spent the last 16 years working as a mechanical engineer for a company specialising in underground mining equipment, and have a passion for hot rodding, and metal fabrication, hence why I'm here, with a view to learn more, and apply that knowledge on my cars that I love building.

Currently I'm tinkering away with my dream car that I've wanted to build for a long time, a steel 34 three window, with a blown hemi....



Anyhow, have been a tinkering in the shadow's for a while, but hope to get more involved, and appreciate the opportunity to learn from those of you out there who share the desire to build and create 'stuff'.

Cheers,

Andrew (Drewfus)
