Default Hello from Hamish

Just a quick hello, I live in Sydney Australia and have been restoring an 1970 Alfa gtv for longer than I care to mention. Not presently having suitable workshop space, I can't share much in the way of recent metal work, but I can learn from others here for when I do. Here's a few pics of the project.

Cheers all

After reading though here & a couple of the other metal shaping forums, there's a lot on this car I'd like to redo better, but at the moment the aim is to get it up and running, and maybe re-work those areas later.

Hello Hamish, I have restored a couple of those Alfas not the easiest thing to do, they do tend to rot - especially here in the UK.

Welcome to the site!.
