John from Down Under
I have been playing with metal for many years. In the 70's I built a clubman car from and Austin A40, built and aluminium fairing for a road racing sidecar which was very light compared with the fibreglass we used normally at the time.
Since then continued to cut fingers, burn hands and chest with all sorts of welding gear. Now I am attemping a boat tailed car body and cooling ducts on my current racing sidecar. Next project is something I call and auto liner. Its an aluminium bodied car resembling the areoplanes of the 30's on a 2.5L Riley. It will have 3 doors, plane style windscreen and be as luxuious as I can make it in side.

Welcome to allmetalshaping John, we have people from all over the world here I am from the UK. Your projects sound interesting, sounds like you keep yourself busy!. When you say a boat tail car is it boat tail or does it have a pointed tail? I would like to see some photos too.

Welcome to the site. I would love to see the side car, the way those racers climb all over them in a race is awsome.
