Default Hey, New Guy From Chicago.

Joined today to learn more about metal shaping. I'm into hot rods and motorcycles. I found out about this site while at a Baileigh Industrial seminar.
I am currently building a '34 Ford pick up and rebuilding one of my dads old bikes. The truck was chopped by me and I'm doing the floors now. First go at this.
Later,
Brian

Thanks guys. I didn't have a chance yet to brake my floor pans. Hopefully tomorrow and see if they fit. I definitely want to make the next meet. When is the metal meet in Minnesota this year? I'll learn how to swing a hammer by then. Haha
