Always been fascinated by the fabrication of panels and metal shaping. Have a family friend who is a metal genius and has done some work on very notable and well know cars.

I have a Triumph TR3 and rebuilt a Piper GTT with my father. The Piper is probably a bad word here as it is fiberglass but still requires some shape.

Looking to get started in metal shaping and been reading up on wheeling machines. I know there is a lot of information and budgets do not stretch to the best machines but very keen to see what can be made.

Look forward to being part of some of these conversations.
Hi Toby,
Welcome to the forum.
(There might be a couple of guys here with TR3's they have worked up to very good condition ...)
