Greetings from Southern Middle TN

[jhery]

My name is Jim and I have been in the auto restoration business for 38 yrs. My training was in coachbuilding but being self employed I have had to learn all aspects of the business. My speciality is custombodied cars of the 20s and 30's but have worked on anything from a 1909 Pierce Arrow to new Rolls Royces and Ferrari's. Born and raised in suburban Philadelphia I moved to TN 6 years ago to pursue my dream of designing and building bodies on original classic car chassis's. I am currently building two 34 Packard boattail speedster bodies and a mahogany decked boattail for a 28 RR. My restoration project is a 47 Delage Ghia for Peeble Beach next year. Looking forward to the forum as learning should be an everyday experience.

Jim

Hi Jim and welcome!
Do you have any pictures of your projects?

Welcome Jim, Looks like we have a lot in common. I have been in restoration for 34 years and a lot of my work thru the years has been fabricating the wood body structures. Currently have a 31 Stutz Boattail in the shop.
We need to get together, I was not aware that you were up the road in Belfast. Dan

Dan: I spoke with Kerry last week and he said he was going to get us together when he gets back from his trip. Jim
