Default Hello from COS, CO
I am an old kid with a desire to learn all that I can before passing. I have more interests than I probably should, but it keeps me constantly on my toes(boy are they sore) and more alert than most guard dogs I have encountered. I have maintained and tinkered with motor vehicles and electronic equipment since the late 60s. I have laser welding, tig, and oa experience(not master of any,always learning). Hope to give as much (or more) knowledge as what I absorb from this site and its participants.

Default welcome thanks
Thank you all for posting welcomes. I have "manipulated" metal before, just never truly shaped it. At this point in time my main interest is in two Rancheros, one 1963 and one 1962. bobadame, I have been into windowed and panel vans ( once even a 1949 Cadillac hearse), but that is as close as I have gotten to buses.
