Default Hello from Scotland

Hi, I am Peter Thompson from The Highlands of Scotland but originally from Lancashire in Englend.
I have a fair bit of interest and a basic ability in shaping metal for cars, having restored several 1930's Austins and a 1969 Fiat 500.
My latest challenge is a 1985 Fiat 900e campervan. Although this is a tiny vehicle in relative terms, it is very rusty and there is a very limited availability of panels.
I was directed to this Forum from the Blog of another member, whose skills, by his own report, have been partly honed because of advice and encouragement from here.

I look forward to posting a few photos and reports about my efforts on the Forum and Iam sure I will continue to learn a great deal from the amazing range of skills and techniques I have seen displayed here already.
