Now this will rock the establishments apple cart but...

IMHO - More often than not the Aussie kits are a better build and conceived bit of kit.
In my experience, many US kits drive like 50years old cars.

Just think, if Robnell, classic revival or Harrison (etc) were US kits the'd be more highly regarded and celebrated.

Just sayin' grass anit always greener.
