Hello from Buda
Hello, My name is John. I live Just outside Austin, TX (SXSW this week!! and cant wait for F1 ) in Buda. I have lived most of my life in central Texas and have for the most part worked as an auto technician for the majority of my employment. I have always enjoyed restoring old Volvo's and Jeeps , currently have 3 P1800's that all need some sheet metal work and would like to customize at least one ( saw DAKOTA's post, Nice work), hence time to learn a new skill. My oldest son has 3 - 1948 Willys jeeps that are also lifetime projects in need of work, so we will both be learning. I enjoy blacksmithing, fabricating anything out of steel and restoring old machines and tractors. I also serve as a volunteer firefighter/EMT with our local Fire department in my spare time.
Looking forward to gathering some of the knowledge and skills that are available on this forum Thanks John Hargett

Hi John,
Welcome to AllMetalShaping. I'm in S.A. We could sure use a metal shaping get together in the Austin area. Anyone else out there in this area? Peace, Chaz
