Im looking at moving back to ChCh or surrounding area as the work culture in my current job has changed in the last few mouths.ive had a look on trademe and there is alot of  recruitment agencies looking for workers and in the past ive used them with not much luck.So ill try here to see if i can get the heads up on any jobs that are coming up.

Ive got 10 or so year experience with no trade cert but have my welding ticket (as/nzs2980).In the past ive worked in general engineering workshop,

As production welder and for the last two year doing more heavy welding for mining sites.I add some pictures too

Thanks for looking 

One would be inclined to go up that long drive way for a better look. If asked,Is this were Barry lives? 

The cars in the sheds are good and some mint ones. When I get my camera out of storage I've about 300 picture of this place

Thanks for the reply  cletus I was thinking of buying the book but that pdf sounds way cheaper. 

hi guys im not sure if this is the right place to post this.

I plan to build my own chassis for my wee Austin 7 and fitting vh41 v8 and auto box up front and rear sub frame from donor car in the rear.At work we have heaps of 75x40x3mm rhs that doesn't get used will this be ok? or will i need to go bigger like 75x50?

My main question is that im thinking at putting the  radiator where the back seat is .Would this be ok ? would it need a bulkhead between front seats and radiator?

Thanks Wayne.

If anyone's keen on these vw buggys I can make some Inquiries about them, there is three for sure maybe other. 5mins out of Reefton and will need 4X4 to get them out 

Seen these today on the way to fix a digger in the middle of nowhere there was a few land rovers also 

Geez it's taken sometime finding a engine for the old girl.After spend hours on trademe looking for the ideal engine only to be disappointed at the cost of shipping. So I started on Facebook at complete cars and this Nissan Leppard came, hell of a ugly car though but it's a V8 and the same price as the V6 Commodores on offer.. Now I can start the chassis 

What can I say really, it not like I needed other project. But after regretting selling the last Austin 7 I had I couldnt help myself from hitting the buy now on trademe. There is a lot more rust than I first thought but mostly in the floor and some around the front window frame and wheel arches
