Default Paul Monds Introduction

Thanks to Kerry Pinkerton for info on this site.
Many on this site are friends that I have met at various Metalmeets, however for those that do not know me, I wll give an introduction.
I am a retired engineer that worked in a plastic extrusion and print plant prior to retirement.
My interest has primarly been in cars having started in the mid '50s with Model A's with various powerplants and various corvair projects.
Present cars include a 50s sprintcar with flathead Ford power, a 39 Ford coupe turned convertable with a 2 in section, and a removable aluminum hardtop. This is Chevy powered and Mopar torsion bar suspension.
Current projects are a V6 buick powered ( thanks Uncle Johnny ) Corvair coupe with multiple metal panel replacements, and a Turbo Flathead Ford powered track roadster to have a hand formed body.
Enough of this, better go out and shape some metal.

Paul Monds

I'm doing some consulting in Indy and drove the hour or so west to visit Paul Tuesday evening. Gracious host and what a neat shop. Not only neat in a clean aspect but also in the 'stuff'. The turbo flathead on modified Essex rails is going to be one awesome ride. I had not seen the finished roof that Paul spent time working on at the last few Oblong events but wow! it came out great.

Welcome Paul.

Hi Paul

Welome to the board. From Kerry's description sounds like you have some neat toys.
