Title: Hi to all from Rod
Post by: Rod1448 on May 13, 2013, 08:28:31 PM

Hi to all, my name is Rod and I’m from Helensburgh. I have just recently joined the forum and plan to join the club. I have not come for a run yet but plan to soon.   :thumb:

I have recently purchased my 1969 Ford Torino GT convertible which was restored in the states between 2004 – 2008 and only arrived in Australia early last year. I have read a lot of posts and will probably be asking lots of questions as this is all new to me.  :sorry:  I have lots to learn and lots that I don’t yet understand about the car as it is pretty original cosmetically but has a few mods underneath the bonnet like the 351 Windsor which has been bored and stroked to 414 with a fuel injection conversion to Megasquirt III (don’t know much at all about this :banghead:), etc. etc.

Anyway here are a few photo’s and looking forward to meeting you guys as soon as I get to one of your runs or displays.

Very nice. Welcome to the forums.
Megasquirt is a very capable ECU. Theres some good on-line resources for it.
I like the hydroboost conversion on the brakes, very cool!.
