Default Hello from Central Indiana

Hello. My name is Jeff McCallister. In 2003 I went to visit Ron Fournier's shop before I registered for a class. To keep a long story short, I ended up working on a rebodied Bugatti in his shop and was invited to stay and work for a week. Unfortunately, I was not done with my undergraduate work, so I did not get to learn or build as much as I had hoped.
Earlier this year I was given my father's 65 Mustang and spoke with hot rod builder Dave Kinnaman about working on it. I've been visiting his shop almost every night at times and have the overwhelming interest once again. I'm hoping to further my education and experience with actual hands on experience along with this website.
Feel free to write me with suggestions of tools to get started with (body tools) and anything else!
-Jeff

Hey Jeff, I also am in Anderson. I know Dave Kinnaman. He does some good work. Did you happen to find anyone around here that hold shaping classes?
