Default Hello from the UK

Hi

My name is Andrew and i live in Croydon, Surrey, United Kingdom.

Interested in joining this forum as it can be a great source for information and idea's. Also most of the projects are very cool.

Current Projects
1956 VW Beetle Oval, Restoring to original.
1964 VW Splitscreen, Bodywork to original, running gear Porsche Boxster. Every thing else (steering, suspension, etc) will be fabricating myself.
1980 VW Golf MK1, Not started.
1987 VW Caddy, The bottom of this vehicle was completely rotten and i had to cut away the bottom 6 inch's of this vehicle. I cut the floor pan from a 1991 Golf convertible to replace the rotten one in the Caddy and the rest i fabricated.
I am also starting 2 custom bikes, one i will be using a sportster for the running gear, the other will be a new build, will be in the style of a Walz. Tubing for frame is done and sitting on jig, just need to get around to tig welding it.

Cheers, Andrew
