I've just ordered the DVD from the metalman(metalshapingzone.com). The guy told me that DVD is aimed at "complete newbys" like me:)

Thank you, guys for the useful links. I'll try that.

Hi, If you remember I was going to build a pick up truck using rover chassis and zil cabin. Well, because I have a complete Rover P4 car, I decided the plan "truck" should be as a secondary/emergency project and I should try to hot rod the Rover first, to make some kind of led sled, covered in...

What if I'd change rear driveshaft original tube to longer tube?

Due to my poor budget and knowledge I decided to stick to pick up truck, to use what is available (and so is cheap) here in Lithuania.

Hi, I'm Tomas from Lithuania, unfortunately I can't show you my project yet, it's in the process of planing, searching etc. But I've got good donor for the rod I'd like to build.
