I'm a collision tech (body and paint) at a dealership. In the early 80's I learned a lot from a couple old time tin bashers. They took the time to teach me how to work steel back into shape. What to do, how to do it, and why. I've always been grateful for that. They lit the fire and I ran with it. That's mostly why I'm doing this build thread. I'll be retiring at the end of this year and this project will probably be my last major build. If this inspires some kid to pick up a hammer and dolly rather than a crack pipe, my debt is paid.
