Hi All,

My name is Scott and I'm very glad to have found this site and all of you. In my younger days I restored a number of old cars, mostly Porches and had to fab a lot of the body work. I learned how to do most of it using only snips, a hammer, dolly and a torch. I finished college, became an engineer, and for the last 25 years have spent most of my time in an office and little time in the shop.

Two kids are grown and married now and I finally have more time to do what I really enjoy. I'm currently restoring a '70 Bronco as these are much more practical in Colo than Porches. A friend and I have replaced about a third of the body panels. It should be ready for paint in a week or too.

Thanks in advance for your help and support.
