Hi all, just wanted to introduce my self to the members on this forum. I am a semi retired farmer from northwest ohio who enjoyes working with metal to rebuild my old cars. I am currently in the middle of building a 57 chevy. It has required many major panels to be replaced or repaired.
Tom

Thanks guys. Yes I took on quite a project. I wish I had known of this forum when I started on it. I have been doing auto body repairs as a hobby for over 30 years but never any thing as ambitious as this 57. I had to replace the whole floor and braces, trunk floor, rear wheel tubs, portions of the inner quarters and trunk wall, part of the toe boards, complete rear quarters and inner and outer rockers. I have all of the body repairs mostly finished and am ready to do the frame next. Till later
