G'day all ,
I thought I would join up and say hello . I am located in the coldest part of the sunshine state (queensland) Australia. I run a 1974 VJ Valiant sedan. It was a Hemi six car ,column auto when I got it and now it runs a 318/904 set up with a few mods . Soon to get a 75 shot of gas and in the near future a 390 Stroker. I have thrown up a few photos for you .

G'Day from Virginia. Great looking VJ you have there. I spent some time in Darwin -I loved it there!
 
Nice.

I'd like to get one of those "Fireball 5.2" stickers!
 
Well Shaun, it's taken you awhile to join this great site......... want be long before you will want a US A body.
You will find this forum very helpful & I have meet some great guy's & gal's here, enjoy
 
Thanks for the kind words....
YY1 , I could maybe organise you a fireball sticker if you want , could source one local here and let you know how much , Where are you for a postage price??

Karl , long time no see, I will be at the Xmas party, you gonna make it ?? Whats with the Canberra address on your profile, Slack or moon lighting

DarTT , I sold the 245CI Hemi six with the auto to a guy for his car, the 245 is not really the one people want here. Good motor in its own right , but everyone who uses the sixes want the 265CI , Mate runs one in his 76 UTE (pickup) , full weight car and has it doing 12.6 N/A ......

Cheers
Shaun
 
welcome and great pics,,love those aussie mopars,,ute,s and the aussie chargers are the koolest
 
Oh okay, that is pretty cool then. If you could give us a better shot of the Firball sticker, that would be wicked!
 
As long as it's on the table-

On Jeeps, the EFI 5.2 bafges are spelled "LITER", and the MPI 5.2 badges are spelled "LITRE".

Make you a deal...I'll collect a bunch of those emblems, and trade you even for the same number of Fireball stickers??
Your choice on the spelling, mix and match OK!

66Dart - We call it the Queens english (even though we want to say goodbye to the Commonwealth.....)
YY - I have found the stickers for 17.50 each and postage from here to you is about $10.00 . Would be the same price for a few of them if they went in the same envelope. Only other way would be to get one and take it to a printer over there who could scan it an reproduce them , Thats all someone has done here .

Thanks for the words about the car and I will try to get some more shots of our Aussie cars up in the gallery

Cheers
Shaun
 
Just posted up some pics in the gallery have a look and let me know what you think. Most of them are members of our club here and we like to race a bit . I will add more as time allows

it is under 1974 Aussie VJ Ranger Sedan

Cheers
