newbie from the Netherlands checking in....
looks like a pretty cool site so I figured I`d join the bunch. Building my Cuda ,I got really interested in sheetmetal work so I decided to plunge into the deep and try to get some kinda business going. Having a blacksmithing background ,swinging hammers is my second nature so that helped a bit too.
Been playing with old cars all my life and I`ve Always like the hot/ratrod scene for the crazy creativity and craftmanship that comes with it.
I also do custom bike sheetmetal but my real passion is old American cars. Right now I`m doing a resto on a Jaguar e-type hood, but once that`s finished I start work on a couple old pick up trucks. ( not mine) First, a 54 Chevy body onto a 91 C1500 frame. This build is for a company that fabs bike frames. Then a 50-something F1 for a customer who wants the cab wider and extended.
[ I`ll start a build thread here once I get going on these.
Hope to learn and help where I can. Thanks for having me.
