Hello

Never heard of these funny looking vehicles until the other day. Thought I'd come and see what all the fuss was about.

Go easy on me.

:D you funny $*@&ers.

Is that any way to welcome a new guy?

Besides, I heard taking a rusty old, chopped up, paddock beaten, POS Baja oval and turning it into a super straight, complete, restored, driving original looking car was the new cool? Maybe Nugget got it wrong.
