Hi guys,
I was on the old site for a while and have been watching and reading what has been going on at this new site, but finally decided to register and get back on board. I tend not to say too much, but listen and learn.

I have been teaching Industrial Education at Duchess Park with Tinmann the last couple of years. Prior to that, I was teachning in Kicking Horse country (Golden, BC) and Comox BC. Born a Kiwi, came to Canada in '77 as a kid. Love to snowboard with my kids - miss my oldest, as he is married and living in Golden. Hate green beans.

I still have the 72 Nova SS - its almost back together again. Hope to fire the engine this weekend. Has a gear driven 350 with a 2004R and 4 wheel disc brakes, buckets, factory gauges and tach.

Also picked up a 56 Chevy Shortbox from Puyallup, Washington, a couple of months ago. It is in amazing shape - one rust hole and just a couple of dents! Once the Nova is out of the shop, it will be going in. It came with a TCI mustang II front end kit with tubular control arms and dropped spindles still in the box along with a bunch of other new parts.

So much for not saying too much...
Cheers.

Welcome back Woodbutcher from one Kiwi to another, you are fortunate to have a great bunch of folks around you up there. I had the privilege of meeting Tinmann and the boys last year, what a horrible bunch of jokers they are:). I was a bit worried when Lee asked me if I wanted a Finnlander Juice and they kept talking about marshmellows and fire, hahaha.

Sounds like you are on a winner with the cars you have good for you. You know what us kids are like if you can work out posting pics we would all be :)ing.

Cheers, John

Welcome back woodbutcher. I remember you on the old site, never said much did you? :):) Always glad to see more people on here, whether you join in or just look. I'm sure you could add some gab when the need arises. Yes, what about pictures?

Hey Gavyn, I had no idea that you were a Jedi warrior. I thought you were more the Jabba the Hut type. Anywhoo, welcome back. I'll be back in the land of the dead pine in three days. Wanna help finish stripping a suburban? Wait 'til you see my recent vehicular score....... $0!!!!
