Grts from Belgium

Hi everybody.
I am Johan, 60 years old, and I have a bodyshop In Oost Vlaanderen, central Belgium.
Main job is restoring old cars.
Also collecting vintage tooling and metalsheet machinery.
Started working on aluminium body with wooden understructure of prewar car.
Know already something about metalshaping but I am aware that there is much more to discover...
Big dream is to build own car from scratch... Need to find more time for that...
Hope to find interesting info on this forum.
Kind regards

Hi Johann, you are in the right place. The aluminum body is a beautiful piece of work. Show some of the process. Good luck.

Creating your own car is much simpler than repairing an old car built with machines and experience we don't have in our own workshop.
