Default New Guy From South Africa

Hey Guys
Hope you all are well
I am a newbie to metal shaping and learning my way around the skill and the art

I am Based in South Africa and main reason why i joined the site was to get info and advise

I am currently busy with my personal Projects
1968 Chev Camaro
1948 Chev 3100 3 window Pickup
1955 Ford F100
and a 63 Corvette Stingray

so with these there will be some basic panel repair and rust panel repair, some basic body work including shrinking and stretching and then some specialised panels either hammer formed or shaped with a wheel

As i get going i will post build pics
so look forward to getting plenty advise

regards
Hugh
