Default Coming back to see whats new in this forum

My name is Eric Griffith. I have worked at Shelby American building Cobras, in hot rod shops and taught at WyoTech. I learned a lot about metal shaping while teaching at WyoTech. I began building a little truck that was used at the school for a metal shaping seminar with Fay Butler. I really enjoy shaping metal. I am currently running my own shop called Griffith Metal Shaping in Austin, TX.

Eric

Welcome Eric, I was a student there while you were working on the truck. I was in day classes though. Do you have a current pic of it?

Here is a picture from 4 years ago. It has not received any attention since. It is sitting in my garage waiting on me to drag it to the shop to work on it. I am hoping to start on it in a month or two.
