so is that it!
Hoodride is gone?
With such a massive following world wide I cannot believe that no one has kept it going.As it was basicly internet based, it would be pi@#$% easy to keep it going.
Tempted I am, it was cool

Hoodride was a scene and a vibe. It's a pity it didn't keep on kicking on over here. I believe the vibe is still alive though. For cruises though in Sydney if you're interested, check out the Speed Bump Hit Squad.

Hoodride went belly up for a few reasons.... Most revolve around the shitty behavior that Derrick got up to.... In the end he was taking a lot of drugs, not getting shit done, not updating the site and owed a lot of people a lot of money.... And the site itself got taken over by a bunch of ball swingers that didn't even own VW's!! As always, there is plenty more to the story, but its all in the past now.... If you are looking to hook up with other like minded Aussie dubbers with a similar angle, check out the Melburg forum (http://melburgluft.com).... Most of the guys spend time here and there and few other places as well... Word gets around....

I joined the melburgluft forum 2 months ago but still can't access it until someone activates my account. Can anyone confirm that the site is still active or not?humpty wrote:If you are looking to hook up with other like minded Aussie dubbers with a similar angle, check out the Melburg forum (http://melburgluft.com)....

yeah sandblasting is a must i want the hole thing bare metal then im going to soak it in a pool of vinegar couple of days dry it then a bath of really salty water if needed.

Google it.... There is loads of info on how to create a genuine rust finish that is actually safe.... I have used a similar process on some steel sculptures I have done over the years.... I have galvanized the structures first, then applied the rust paint finish to make the corrosion happen.... It's actually an iron oxide component that has been added to a conventional paint... There are many manufacturers out there.... Doing it this way gives you the look, but not the problems.... But it's not hardcore like the hoodies of old....

To keep the rusty finish like that, put some WD-40 on there or some fish oil. But it'll pretty much never stop rusting once it's started.
