Instead of the post for what would be 1 car you would import maybe continue this post with what are your top 8 cars you would like to store under Huddy1955's carport :-)
I had a think and this is my list; (altho there are many more I would like to squeeze in)
1#My Hornet (Aussie 4 door V8 converted) I at least have 1 of the 8
 2#Mark 2 Mini Cooper S
3#1968,69 or 70 Aussie Rambler Javelin 4#1931 5 window Ford Coupe (original but with V8 Flathead conversion)
5#1968 Aston Martin DBS coupe with big Chev V8 conversion 6#Original 351 Police Pursuit Ford XD Falcon 7#1998 Garry Rush Castrol Sprintcar 8#1970 Yellow Plymouth Superbird |

Yeah I wish I had one
 My 70 Aussie Hornet is the only one I think I will own out of that 8 but it doesn't hurt to dream

Looks like a pretty decent solid construction, It would be worth collecting the water at some stage and rigging up a fire pump. It is worrying the amount of bush fires in NSW. We built a trailer with a tank and pump on it after my mate lost the lot at Kinglake. Hopefully he will never have to use it.

Our older brother owns that red ex fire Land Rover unit seen here in the pictures, maybe we should put a large tank/pump on the back of that.

Good job Huddy, a man can never have too much shed. You know that there are only two sizes in shed?
Too small and just right! I am putting an awning on my shed, adding 6 m x 12 m, should be just just right.

I'm sure you realise that just right is only a temporary thing because pretty soon it will be too small.

Yep, that is how it works, my 12m x 9m shed is now too small, hence the 12m x 6m awning

Hope I didn't mess up this posting with my top 8 list of cars I would like to own (and store under your carport he he) Seeing 8 cars under your carport just got me thinking of what my top 8 (actually I thought of 10 with #9 1971? Mike Wasina supermodified and #10 American Graffiti 1932 John Milner Ford coupe) so I couldn't help but wack it up on the post as I had never really sat and worked out a top 10 regardless of year or make. There is too many cool cars and AMC's are right up there with the best I reckon. Shame they don't seem to get as much recognition although a Hornet was in the top 20 at the Summernats this year. Does anyone have any info on that car? as I don't really follow the street machine thing much. Also Jim Richards Javelin would be helping too. Shame it got creamed. Hope he get's it going again soon :-) |
