New Guy from Australia

Hi All,

I am new to the forum from Australia.

My main interest is purchasing a 1964-66 Chevy C-10 or GMC 1000 Short Step Pickup and bringing it back to Australia to be a daily driver.

Nice to meet you all.

Philby

Re: New Guy from Australia

Welcome from South Mississippi. I spent a little time "down under" mainly Freemantle and Perth. The submarine I served on pulled in for a week. Really good time, really nice people. You looking for a right hand drive or you gonna be the odd man out?

Re: New Guy from Australia

I'll have to get out my globe and find Adelaide. I can't tell you how many times I almost got run over looking the wrong way before stepping off the sidewalk.

Welcome. I've been to Australia 3 times and loved the country and the people. My wife's uncle lived in Petrie and we used that as a base and did some traveling. I would like to go back again and see more.
