Hey hows it going. Im Glenn and i live on the Sunny Coast in QLD Australia. Ive started to get into metal shaping this last year due to restoring an old Mopar i imported from the state's last year, 69 Dodge Coronet 440 6 pack.
Their is a little bit of body work to do on it as ive found quite a few bog holes in it which led me into wanting to build my own patch peices. This has led into buying a tig welder, shrinker stretcher and a bead roller not to mention countless hours watching you tube. I have plenty of questions to ask as i have never done any metal work before but pretty damn keen on learning as much as i can.
Cheers.
