Green Machine. The return of the "Madden"

[ChilliChadd]

Great job Matt and Sheri, she's turned out beautiful. Now off and get yourself fixed

[unilec5544]

Well done Matt, beautiful work and in record time as well, car looks amazing

[Lewy47]

Matt,

Get your back sorted. We need people of your ilk working stateside. I can imagine that John was pretty comfortable that you were doing the right thing by the project all along and money can't buy that peace of mind.

High fives for Sheri as well, it seems she has a decent hand in most of your work too. I can't even get my other half to clean out the kids food scraps in her car!

I just remembered that I saw a guy here in Sydney build a 65/66 ute about 15 years ago. It was western Sydney somewehere but no idea where or who. Maybe someone knows. It wasn't at your stage when I saw it but was cut, shut and prepped.

Thanks lewy

As for stateside...that may be a reality very soon. Luckily I have a new ute that will coming with me to Adelaide...Think I need to get a hold of both Johns and ask if they mind storing the old girl for me in melbourne for a bit

As for Sheri...shes a ledgend when it comes to mustang...put a vette infront of her and I wouldnt see her for days

Matt

Where do you hail from in Adeliade Matt? My 66 is currently at the folks place at Happy Valley and needs someone to get it road worthy again after sitting for the last 10+ years.

I don't have many photos but do have some video from last Christmas. I should work out how to post that. Should offer some laughs as I try starting it and gasssing everyone out. From memory it was a flattened fuel bowl float screw fibre washer which kept the thing flooding.

No worries Matt, I'm positive i could find a safe place to store the Ute and of course it would be my duty to start it, run it down the local pub on a Sunday thru the beautiful hills of st Andrews for a counter lunch to make sure its running well and all the moving parts are kept lubricated
I'm pretty sure i could put myself out to do that for you Matt

[nassi]

so its going to be RHD then?

[shermatt]

whoops...posted in the wrong thread

Was meant to post pics in the ute thread

sorry John

[bages]

Awesome work again Matt, I love the paint/trim combo on this one

[Chopper]

18 days long beach to melbourne got to love that

[shermatt]

John/s

Whats the deal with getting a 65 ute registered with a 347/Edelbrock fuel injection/Recaro seats/18 inch wheels/racing fuel cell and pumps and a 5 speed in Melbourne?

Matt

Obviously that wouldn't be allowed.
Therefore you need to sell it to a bloke in QLD who will rename it "Frankenute""

[shermatt]

Scedd, you think that would slide in QLD?

I might move this to the ute thread. (sorry john...what were you saying?...oh yeah....18 days....You f@@king little ripper)

Matt

[Chopper]

Chopper and Michelle would like to announce the safe arrival of maddy, new baby is settling in well and new parents are a little bit over refreshed.







Thanks also to son Chris for the prompt delivery, its a bonus having someone in the trade

Congrats, it looks great in your front yard too.

But what are you or whoever it is... doing on the roof of the house?
Aerial photography maybe?
