Default greetings from belgium.
Hi,

I'm Jean-François,32 years old, from belgium, Europe. I work with my parents in our family business of fuel oil and diesel sales and delivery.
I always have lots of interests in the car hobby restoration. I currently restore a 1976 vw bus. Nothing as exceptionnal as what you guy's do but you have to start somewhere 😉
I bought some years ago a dvd from David Gardiner and it really was an eye opener about how bodywork and fabrications should be done. Really accessible too.
So, what did I expect from this forum? Learning about basic métal and bodywork. One of the skill I would like to learn simply is to correctly repair dings and dents and put a body panel back into is original shape without sculpting it out of plastic filler.

Also, I apologise about my spelling as I'm french spoken

Thanks, JF.
