Default Introduction - Bill Funk

Greetings,
I have loved metal shaping all my life. My interests to apply shaping run a broad range; cars, boats, aircraft, furniture, houses, etc.
To date, I have used mostly hammers, dollies and a sand bag. In my new shop I hope to upgrade to more forming equipment.
Currently, I have the title for a 1916 Mercer Roadster. Most of the car will have to be fabricated.
