Hello from New Zealand

[Hot Rod Todd]

Hi Im Todd & Im from Christchurch in New Zealand.

Ive been a hot rodder since I was a teenager back in the 70s and have a 23 T bucket with a blown 540 Chev, a 26 T Coupe with a 302 Ford, a 37 Nash with a LT1 Chev and Vortex (under construction still after 15 years) and my wife has a 37 Fiat Topolino with a 1500 Toyota in it.

And we have an 86 Suburban C10 with a 6.5 Diesel in it. I bought it to tow the T bucket to the drag strip, and its no show car. Actually its pretty ugly but its a great tow wagon & its great for going camping in. Last year we fitted a turbo setup from as mid 90s 6.5 and rebuilt the trans which died shortly after.

This summer, we plan to tidy up the body and lower it a lot so its looks a bit better.

Cheers
Todd

Curious Todd, so being in New Zealand, does this mean you have a right hand driver square??? We've seen various pics of RHD squares but not members here. Whether its RHD or not, we'd still like pics of your truck.

Im glad you mentioned that, you might be right about the RHD! My buddy just got back from New Zealand and mentioned driving was a huge pain in the ass for him.
