Hi,

My name is Kevin Towers. I'm currently working on restoring my first car - 1969 VW Beetle. I'm interested in learning more about metal forming because most of the aftermarket VW parts are badly fitting Chinese knockoffs.

Welcome aboard Kevin.
It's nice to be able to fab your own parts.
You came to the right place.

Welcome to the forum, Kevin.

Somewhere on here is a link to a video of someone in the Philippines? making some floor pans or similar for a air cooled VW bus using a hammer, the ground, his feet and little else. Very cool. Tried finding it to link it but haven't yet...

Cliffrod, it was in this thread that it was shown but the photos are missing and the links are now broken so it's difficult to tell where it could now be found.
