    Smile Hey Peops

    Hey everyone!

    My name is Matt. I'm 23 & I live in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. I'm an IT student and a Disability Carer Part-Time. My dad was an A-grade Mechanic for many years and I suppose as the youngest son I've picked up a fair bit over the years.

    I recently just bought a Ford Maverick Ute and intend to set her up for a bit of touring and once all sorted perhaps become a toy. It currently has a 2" lift kit and 32" KM2s, otherwise pretty much stock. I have quite a few modifications in mind to make it a real sweet piece of kit and a keeper. The upsides to buying an all leaf pov pack ute is that it has very little rust and the engine bay is spotless.

    Anyways I hope to learn some valuable information and continue to share my love of automotive machines.
