Rhydoldog Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Hello all. New member, joining up as I've just bought a lovely Austin K9 Radio Truck, fitted out as a camper and a beautiful thing it is too. It's my first MV so a total new boy in this area. Historic motorsport is my thing and I race at quite a few tracks around the place - this will be my home from home from now on - much nicer than a crap hotel. Looking forward to learning the ropes and picking up some tips along the way on this forum so thanks for letting me join Cheers Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcoycqms Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi Ben and welcome Will we be seeing you at some for the local show in the west sussex area? Shane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydoldog Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Thanks very much for the welcome Tony B - I mainly race a 1953 Cunningham C4R and a 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti - it's a lot of fun. Shane, I'd like that - Can you point me towards a calendar? Where do the shows take place? Here's some pictures. (shows my son - not me!)

ferret1958uk Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Welcome. Selling my K9 is something that I still regret doing. Yours looks excellent and I always did prefer the look of the early bonnet without the extra vents. Merlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simondema Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi Ben Welcome aboard. Although not into trucks (more Champs and jeeps) it looks a really nice truck. Great restoration job. Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
