Default Hello from Sunny Surrey

Hi! I'm Jon from the currently sunny county of Surrey in the UK. I've been renovating a 1973 Datsun 240Z for about a year now although I'd be surprised if it's finished before I shuffle off this mortal coil . I'm basically using the car as a front to buy tools and have fun in the garage!

I'm trying to learn more about metal shaping to help with fabrication tasks on the car and my dream is that I can become proficient enough to actually use some of the items I produce to bring the car back to it's former glory. That's the dream anyway.

Welcome to the forum, Jon.

I've been on a tool-buying binge lately, too. Can't wait to have more time & fun using them than fitting it all into the shop....

Welcome to the forum Jon, you’ve come to the right place to learn. Anyway, what’s life about if you don’t have some unfinished projects?
