Hello from Hunter Valley Australia

Hello from the Hunter Valley, NSW Australia,

My name is Ben and i'm looking to learn how to shape metal for a new project that i have been thinking about for a while.

I have always had a hobby car up to a few years ago mostly early Holdens (GM). You know the story, got married got to pay of the morgage etc. But doing things with my hands and cars helps me relax, so with the boss giving her approval i'm looking to scracth build a car.

Anyway i'm looking to scratch build a basic roadster, based on the 1926 Model T.

I know right now i don't have the skills or equipment needed to do this but you got to start somewhere.

I look forward to your advise, i will need it.

Cheers Ben

Hi Ben and welcome!

Hi Ben, welcome to the forum. I have a thread on here that you may find interesting, I am building a '27 T on a '32 chassis, I am building the body from scratch, I am not finished yet but I have done quite a bit. I did not cop out and build an aluminium facsimile. Its in steel and as exact a copy of an original as possible.

Here is a link to my thread if you are interested.
