Re: bullet birds in australia
My 62 Hardtop was exported from the USA in 2004.it arrived in Christchurch New Zealand where it travelled 300 miles in 3 years.
The owner sold it to me in December 2007 and I took it to Invercargill, NZ.
In 2013 I brought to Perth Western Australia when I moved.

Re: AC Hose
I've found someone who can crimp a new fitting to my existing hose without needing to be removed from the car
Thanks
