Sorry.  Does not seem to be anyone from SA. Unhappy
 
All you get is a reply from the daft American with the American.  If it makes you feel any better, I'm a Hornet fan as well.  I would not mind having a Sportabout. Big smile
 
Cheers and good luck!
Insist on more in '64 - go Rambler!

Hi guys (& girls),
Having beeen on the other forum for years, and lurking here, thought I'd post here too.
Been in Adelaide for 38 years, had Ramblers since I was 18 (I'm 54 this year).
Ran Rampart Automotive spares for 13 years, so some of you may know me. Still got some odds and ends.
We wrecked about 75 AMC's over the years, but supply dried up while demand for certain parts rose. And with the dollar at 52 cents exchange at times, importing parts got expensive.
Still working on my own projects though, with the Gremlin coming along.
 
Dave
