G'day from sunny Queensland
Hi all. I'm Bill from Mackay in tropical Queensland, Australia. I'm a retired electronics engineer now spending most of my time driving/restoring my collection of vintage cars:
1926 Morris Cowley roadster 1927 MG 14/28 tourer 1934 Lagonda Rapier sedan 1934 Lagonda Rapier tourer 1957 Ferguson FE35 tractor (only joking, it's a workhorse. I've got a few acres to slash) I seem to spend a lot of time torturing sheet metal in one shape or another so this forum should be very useful. Regards to all

That's a fine looking automobile even if I don't know what a scuttle is.
I take it that's the cowl? If so, looks like a nice piece.
