gday from newcastle

Post by Newcastle jack »

Gday just joined up thought I would introduce myself, my name is Jack.

I bought a 1962 split about a year ago in need of a full resto , its currently stripped and at the rust removal stage. I'm about to get right back into it and get it up on a rotisserie so happy to share info with anyone in the same boat. Im a diesel mechanic by trade so happy to help with any questions you might have ill do my best to help.

Here are some pics of the big girl showing where im up to, ah no good my files for pic's are to big there 3.32mb can anyone tell me how to reduce there size so I can post them up, sorry i'm new to this.

Have a good one!

cheers jack :)

Squat, place chin on chest, tuck head and tip forward, shoulders connect with ground and back follows through, legs go over the top and feet land on the ground. That's how I roll!
