Ok, I´ll try some blogging.. I´ve beed doing stuff involving metal for so many years, so maybe I can show some of it.
Everything started with Internet somewhere in the mid- 90´s. I found this site Metalshapers. I had been doing some simple things earlier, but it was like welding patch panels etc.
My first car was 1966 Ford Fairlane stw, that had a very rusty floor. A friend of mine welded it but it was still rusty so my father bought a mig welder.. Finally the floor was completely welded using small pieces of sheet metal, none of them bigger than a playing card :D :D Well the car is still a on the road I guess..
Heres a car I always wanted, 1959 Dodge. This model is Kingsway, made in Canada with Dodge front fenders, hood and grille. The rest was 1959 Plymouth 4d.
Of course I had to chop it, year was 1997 or 1998..
And also tarditional Finnish 4d->2d ht conversion
I think this was the first heavily shaped piece I made for any car. I made this using only hand tools.
I had to redo the first 4d-2d conversion, there was just too much filler. 2002-2004
I also had to make the wheel arches, now with planishing hammer, bead roller and shrinker/stretcher
