New member from Australia

Post by Michael H » Sat 27 Aug 2011, 06:35

Hi all my name is Michael Hansen and I have just joined this forum.
I live in Melbourne Australia but have a soft spot for you muscle cars.
I have been reading this forum for a while and thought it was time I can abord.
Over the years I have owned and imported a few fairmont gt's and they are one of my favourite cars.
I hope to be of help and assistance to members as I have owned many early fords, fairmonts and mustangs in both 6 cylinder and V8.
I already know a handful of your members from other forums.
Hope to speak to you guys and girls soon :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Welcome Michael. Agree with Tiaan 100%.
You are also in the remanufacturing business of certain GT parts? Please tell us more about it?

Hi Michael,

Welcome to the forum.

You're from a nice part of the world especially as the variety and interest in V8's is impressive.

I stole my avatar picture from an Australian website.

Looking forward to 'picking your brain' in the technical section.

Cheerz4now,
Nick

If you're lucky enough to have a V8, you're lucky enough !
