Hello all,
My name is Nigel and I live in Kent UK. Until recently I was teaching all aspects of accident repair at a local Technical College, but now i have found my dream job restoring classic, historic and prestige vehicles.
The work list includes Aston Martins,Bugatties and Jaguars.
Some of these vehicles had such low production runs that many parts are not available and have to be made. I have my way of producing items however this may not be the right way but it works for me (sometimes) and sharing the knowledge to the members of this forum may well assist in their endevours to produce panels,tanks and fenders.

Thank you for allowing me to join this forum and I look forward to sharing and learning new skills.

Kind regards
