Default Metal Origami

Hey All,

My name is Woj. I'm from Perth in Western Australia. I've been surfing page and pages of car build up threads from professional and ameteur shapers for a while now and I would really like to learn how they achieve some of the lines, curves and shapes in these cars that I would like to implement in my own 1977 RA28 Toyota Celica build.

I would be looking at doing a "Pro Touring" style build up.

I guess I want to join to pick up information, ideas and to have a reference when I get stuck in a bind from a huge group of experts.

Regards,

Woj.

Welcome! you will have to post pics of the car! My wife is building her own supra out of several wrecked ones. she put together the engine and all! She really wanted an older one but we settled for a newer one just to be a learning car. (rwd turbo lsd... plenty to learn there!)
