Default New old guy from AL
Instructions from the administrator said that they want more of an intro than "new guy, call me Bob." Well ... call me Bob (Taylor).

Past project was the complete lower 6" of the body of a 1936 Nash Lafayette and a complete frame with Supra suspension. There are no patch panels for a 1936 Nash! Current project is a 1936 Dodge coupe.

I have lurked on allmetalshaping for years and learned a lot; finally decided to join.

I'm always interested in improving metal working skills and in home made tools.


Bob

Welcome Bob, Where in Alabama are you?

There was a guy here in Huntsville that had a couple Lafayettes. Pretty rare cars. I understand needing to get into shaping because parts aren't available. I'm an Imperial (Chrysler) fan and got into metal shaping because there is no sheetmetal for them either.

Kerry,

I have admired your work my years lurking on metalshaping. I live in Opelika (Auburn). You must live near Ardmore. I was born in Ardmore, but OK not AL!

Bob
