Default Hello from Hamilton

Hi from Hamilton, I used to be a auto bodyman for a living, but gave it up in the mid 90's. I now work as an Industrial Mechanic. I still do some side projects. I have a friends 32 ford 3 window as a project right now. Lots of work to complete. I have to make door skins for it, as they are missing. I'll be asking for advise when that part gets started.

I am also almost finished putting my 60 Chevy back together, and will be starting another project as soon as I can. I like the punishment, or so it would seem.

I bought Ron Fournier's Metal Fabricators Handbook years ago and started building a track T roadster back in 1994/5 but I abandoned it to buy a house and such. Time to get back at it.....

I'll be hosting a meet late April or early May in the east end of Toronto.
I will post more later in the events section when I firm up the dates.

Default Pictures from current projects

My 60 impala, time to fix up the floors. Of course once I was almost finished restoring the panels, the entire floor is now available. Oh well made some new rollers for the bead roller and learned a bunch. There are about 50 or so patches to make up this quilt.
