Winston Churchill Fellowship
Hello everyone,
As some of you may know I am a young Australian guy and I have received a Winston Churchill Fellowship to travel the world to further my knowledge on coachbuilding and traditional panel beating techniques. I will be starting my trip on 9th Aug 2017. I have majority of my itinerary locked in but have a few days here and there that I would like to fill with any recommendations of places and things I should from you guys. Please let me know anything or anyone you think I should go and visit while on my travels. My trip so far is as follows Boston/ Charlton – Wray Schelin Proshaper Pebble Beach for 4 days Los Angeles – Steve Hogue Enterprises Detroit UK – Goodwood revival Shropshire – Southan Metalcraft Newport Pagnell – Aston Martin Works Bologna – Still trying to find a workshop to work in Rome Also if you live in any of these areas and would be interested in accommodating a young Australian on the trip of his lifetime please feel free to message me as well. I will pay you for accommodation of course. Anything else you can think of please feel free to leave a comment. I will probably use this post as a place to upload all my experiences while on my trip so check back here to follow along. And also I will be on Instagram as Precious_Metal_ Thanks Kip Mcintyre
