Mate, there's a dedicated "dragster bikes" category on ebay:

There's generally a few good bikes on there at any one time, but your issue will probably be getting them to Hobart. You can also try hitting up the local op shops and the like. My local op shop just chucks all the bikes they get - its just not worth the effort for them to rebuild them and try to sell them, so they just ditch them! Scouring garage sales and the trading post can also yield success.
If you're interested in cool pushies, you should also check out www.ratrodbikes.com and http://bikerodnkustom.homestead.com/gallery0.html for inspiration, there's a great combo of restored and custom bikes on both websites!

Thanks for the info, I've been checking the local places for a fair while with no success so I just thoughtI'd chuck it up here and see what happens. I don't mind arranging freight for the right bike.......

great Aussie forum for dragster bikes, should be able to find something on there. I have a couple of bare frames if your interested, but no real parts anymore.
