hey guys, my name is rhodsey I'm new to the scene and looking for either clubs, events, cruises, people to talk shop with or just have a beer and marvel at the awesomeness of the muscle car! i have a 67 Cammy 383 4speed that I'm constantly looking to improve! would be great to meet a similar crew in Perth as it seems like a small/underground scene! cheers!

Youll notice that there are a sh!tload of Perthians on here mate and we have a get together every now and then so look out for a thread on a WA get together and come alon. The more the merrier. BTW we NEED to see some pics of your beast...

Rhodesy, welcome aboard

What do you mean small....

Seems everyone in Perth has a fricken Camaro. If you want to be different you need a Firebird in WA.

I'm sure the WA boys will chime in with a welcome

Welcome mate, your not wrong about 1st gen camaros becoming more popular, now 6 in my smallish home town...about the same number in every street in perth by the looks :D
As for looking at our photos, just check out the build and the rides section in the forum. Ken

Welcome mate

Heaps of people on here from Perth but I'm a real outsider cause my Mustang doesn't have a Chev badge.

Will, real nice mate... Was wondering about the sparco seats you have in the first pic.. Did you get them locally in perth and if so from whom and what sliders did you use?

Cheers

Nice one Mate, did i see you cruise through the AAP open day last month?

67 rs Rhodesy

14-01-2010, 05:56 PM

thanks guys!! still a list as long as my arm on modifications!! but i guess that's all part of the fun! Craig im not partial to Chev...infact i have owned 5 fords and this is the first gm car i have owned! i love old school muscle and im happy to cruise with any badge. was looking at roadrunners and 68/69 GTO's before i bought this. Lyndsay Got the sparcos of a mate who ended up needing more headroom in his project and went for a fixed seat, he bought them locally (ill ask where) and we slightly modified and cleaned up the original rails to suit them. Think they cost him just over 2g fully adjustable with rails. Jamie that wasnt me at AAP but i have seen a silver and black stripe 68 ss/rs that looks similar around!

Welcome Big Al.. Your Bronco looks pretty tough mate - 4x4 muscle! Had a very similar bus in the states.. Hope you enjoy your stay mate.

Sorry mate didn't mean to imply you were biased or anything, was just saying i'm in the minority as there are only a couple of Mustangs on here, most people have something GM. Not that I mind though, I love all the old muscle cars and if I ever won lotto first thing i'd get is a 20 car garage.
