I'm further west actually, damn near a Canadian too (up by the border). I love the iron range but I landed a bit west of lake of the woods Mn over 20 yrs ago when I hung up my Marine corps uniform. (Lake of the woods, a fishermans landmark)

56wingnut, do you host events in Mn? Any training opportunities?


Photobucket screwed us all a while back and I haven't jumped things over to a new image host site, otherwise I'd show a little bit of what's been getting me by to date. I have no plans on coach building like some of these true artists that post here. I see photos of complete car bodies and I'm simply amazed, truly inspiring.

In my restoration and hot rod work I run into panel rot for cars that have no reproduction support. Honestly, after fitting many repop panels sometimes I think a person would be better off just making your own panels anyways, lol.

A 1958 plymouth recently put a load test on my novice abilities and limited tool/equipment situation. I was happy with my results but it was an eye opener. I need more stuff, better stuff and more knowledge.
