Hello, my name is Steven and I live at Sisters Beach in Tasmania, Australia. I have been into cars for most of my life and have done some restorations on several cars during that time. I am wanting to expand my experience in the restoration of cars at home.

I am about to start on a FJ Holden ute resto with my son who is 12 years old and hopefully have it completed for his leavers dinner in 4 years time.

So I hope to get some help and meet some new friends whilst on this site.

Thanks and cheers

Steve

Hi Steve and welcome!
The best time with my son was when we built him a hot rod T bucket for his senior year in high school. The princable was an A$$ and he hated that car, that was the best part

Default FJ Ute

Welcome to AllMetalShaping


As you are restoring an FJ Ute, there is an absolute specialist in Launceston, and he is a member here. Look up RestoRodRace, his name is Adam and he builds specialized parts for that very model!


Enjoy your metalmadness
