Default Hello from Sunny San Diego

Hello Everyone,

I have a 1968 BMW 1602 I'm restoring. She's a good old girl that needs some TLC. Not too much cancer but enough that a few things need to be replaced. Few holes in the floor pan, Rockers, and A-Pillars. I want to learn to shape metal so I can do it all myself. I have most of the stuff I'll be needing. E-wheel, Planishing Hammer, Bead Roller, Hammer and Dolly kit, Shrinker and Stretcher, Bending Brakes, that's about it... Any suggestions on adding to my collection?

Thanks,
Shane
