[just dreamin]

Thanks Dave, gee your quick out of the starting blocks. Glen you will be kept in the loop and message to lobelly sent.
Rebel1 there was some support at the time but it dwindled for a number of reasons.

The timing of this post is to take the window of opportunity the Nats provides. For those that are there I can provide an update on my efforts and identify to them the obstacles I have encountered.
It would be silly to conduct a campaign on an open forum in detail. However if there is enough interest we can open up the communication lines with contact people in the various locations.

Let me just start with this example for the doubters and the nay sayers out there.

I am too old to pay an engineer thousands of $ to register a car so that I can alter it as soon as I get home and make it illegal and un roadworthy.
I am also unimpressed that a replica category is recognised for a car that was never built in any factory or production line, doesn't have a manufacturers brand, and could not be purchased at time of original sale from any retailer or dealer.
Street rods were built in back yards by unqualified individuals that learned how to weld by trial and error and read Hotrod mags to see what the Yanks were up to so that they could be cool and knowledgeable.

Before I was eighteen I had an A mod roadster, a 37 ford coupe and some 650 Triumphs etc and I can tell you all, that fixed any desire I had for street rods.
My choice of car when I left home and Joined the Army in late 1965 was a one year old EH Holden Premier.
