I'm doing this all wrong about, posting first then introducing myself, but here goes.
I'm a newbie rider, only been riding just over two years. Started with a '94 ZR550 (Zephyr) as a learner bike, and a '79 Suzuki GS550 as my VJMC learner bike. Built up an '82 GPz750R1 one I got off my restricted license, and have a '78 Suzuki GS750 I've almost finished. The last project bike is an '82 Z650 which I'll be posting about here.
Other than the bikes I'm a big fan of old American cars .. and have a '69 AMC Javelin, '74 AMC Javelin and '70 Plymouth Fury III convertible.

Here's some photos of the '69 Javelin .. Australia assembled, right-hand-drive, 1-of-40 .. 343V8, floor shift auto, LSD, A/C, P/S, front PB discs, 140mph speedo and 8000rpm tach (both fantasy!)
Here's the '74 Javelin .. left-hand-drive import. 304V8 and column auto. Rust repairs to rear qtrs but the rest of the car was good. Still learning enough to paint it properly myself (practising on bikes). Now has AMX rear spoiler and cowel-induction hood.
.. and the '70 Fury .. sorry but best photo I have of it at the moment. Was purchased registered from interstate but upon delivery was found to be badly damaged and repaired. New inner and outer rear qtr repair (from 4-door donor car), repairs to firewall, floor, etc, etc ..
Eventually it should look like the second car as I have a '71 SportFury grille with hidden headlights for it.
