Default New guy in central Texas

Hi,

I couldn't be more ignorant about metal shaping! I hope to learn more from the folks here. I'm looking to retire in a couple of years and may get around to restoring an old VW Notchback...if I can understand how to manipulate metal. At any rate Hello from central Texas.

Thanks,
Mike

Hello Mike and welcome! There's a few folks here that are into old VWs. You should post some photos. I like notchbacks but have never owned one, mine were mostly squarebacks.

Thanks for the welcome.
I'll see if I can find any pictures of the notchback. Right now I can't get to it.

Thanks,
Mike
