Default New to forum restoring 1937 Buick

Hi.,my name is Geno and I'm new to the forum. I'm restoring a 1937 Buick which grandparents bought used in 1942. They parked it outside for 25 to 30 years so there is rust on most every panel. No replacement panels are available so I'm fabricating parts from 18 ga steel. and welding with a MIG welder. This site was recommended to me and I look forward to learning.
Thanks

Welcome Gino. This is the perfect place for you.

Show us your Buick. (The mantra here is: "No photos? it doesn't exist.)
