Hi, my name is Allan & I am a car-a-holic 
Just a quick introduction - I'm a New Zealander with a passion for older vehicles. I won't bore you with my non-Mopar stuff but I have a '59 Desoto Diplomat (Plymouth body, Firesweep front clip) that needs a lot of rust work unfortunately (previous owner stored it in a leaky seaside garage...). I also have a '58, several 55/56 Belvederes & a '39 Dodge D12. All the above were NZ cars originally but I'm currently looking at importing an airport limo around the same era
My storage is a bit fragmented at the moment so am looking forward to getting a big shed up & everything in one place. Once that's sorted, I'll start looking at where to start I know I'm going to need a new trunk lid & rear guards but until I take the body off & get a good look at the chassis, there's no point accumulating anything.
I've had the '59 for several years now but only recently found this site & Forward Look. Good to find like minded (although no doubt slightly crazed ) people!
Cheers,
Allan
