Default Greetings from New Zealand

Hi, my name is Sam and I live in a little corner of the world called New Zealand (made famous by The Lord of the Rings). I have some metal shaping experience, mostly making simple rust repair sections for my '72 Holden Statesman (part of the GM family). But have recently purchased (with the help of a tax refund) a shrinker/stretcher, bead roller and pan brake to start on some more complex panels. Currently saving up for english wheel and TIG to increase the capabilities. Current projects are a Austin A35 which is being modified with a viva subframe, 4 link rear and toyota 4age drivetrain, soon to also begin a 'Hot Rod' project once I clear some room in the garage.

Hi Sam, welcome. This is a great place to hang out, learn some stuff, and be inspired. I'm not a Kiwi but I'm in Auckland.
