Hey guys,

I am about to embark on the project I have been wanting to do for years, build a car from scratch - on a (very tight) budget :D so I am after a reasonable seccond hand gas mig weldor - up to around $500, and also a source of some 25mm box section mild steel tubing - most lengths are pretty short, so if you work somewhere or have an idea where I could get my hands on some for a small fee around Hobart I would appreciate a pm or email [email protected]

-Strictly speaking this should be in the classified section, but what I am after cant be easily posted, but if it has to be moved then thats ok.

Here's the final product of what I am trying to achieve...

As I said on NS.com, come and see me for the metal, and I can ask around the industry for a MIG for you, or ask Blake to see if his old man can help you. Just stay away from the SIP welders. They are crap!

Cheers, Greg.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
