Default Hello from New Zealand

Hi, Trevor here, from New Zealand Long time listener - first time caller (Not really, I've followed metalshaping online for a number of years now, back to the original metalshapers email list, then the various later developments) I don't do much actual shaping right now, just as needed for my car project. I have an E-wheel I built a few years ago, based on the Kerry P model. I also acquired a Nibbler Medium which I've had a few different dies for as required. A few pics Nibbler and old Sidney lathe Some Nibbler tooling Inner guards for the MM project Here's my main project - a Morris Minor roadster pickup. All new chassis and running gear, Nissan 2l turbocharged engine. Currently fairly abandoned but am working a fixing a few rust issues in the front guards.

Thanks for the welcome guys. Peter, I also have a slightly rusty HG Kingswood that is going to need some attention soon.
