Thumbs up Introducing Myself

Hello everyone! My name is Keith Norton and I live in Yorkville, NY. That's Central New York, which is Upstate, not NYC. I'm slowly stepping into metal shaping due to my 1980 Firebird that I have owned since High school. My life has been up and down the past ten yrs, which those yrs haven't been kind to her. Things are looking like I can finally spend some time on bringing her back. Hopeful to learn more about how to make/work with the panels I will need for my project. As well as what tools I will need and how to use them properly. I can might and tight weld, though it has been a while since I have.
I'm also attending college, working full-time, and have a family. So if I don't get back to you right away, Please don't take offense. I'm just constantly running about.
Thank You!
