Hi, names Dan and I'm from Fredericksburg, VA. I've attended a couple of shop gatherings put together by OJ Higgins that had demonstrations from members MP&C and James Bowler. They recommended this site as just about everything I do revolves around Pre-1964 American cars, primarily hot rod/custom stuff. Rust repair and minor body modifications are the most common type of metalwork I do but I'd really like to learn more about making intricate panels and metal finishing.

The current metalworking projects are a 1952 Chevy 2 door sedan that's in the process of getting front fender bottoms, door bottoms, inner rockers, outer rockers, partial quarters, and some minor body modifications.

A 1953 Mercury 2 door hardtop that's in the process of getting front fender bottoms, inner rockers, outer rockers, body mounts, partial floor pan and minor body modifications.

A 1950 Ford 4 door sedan I converted to a 2 door sedan and am currently chopping the top 3" in front and 4" in rear. It's gonna need the standard rust repair as well. :dunce:

Think that's all for now. Thanks for having me and looking forward to some new knowledge!
