			Hi I'am a 57 year old retiree that loves restoring car mainly Jaguars and MGs.  I have a passion for metal work general machining and just plain old working on cars.  Prior to retiring last year I equipped my work shop with a lathe, a mill, english wheel and shrinker and stretcher.  I have no formal training in any of the metal shaping skills and I'm hoping for some mentoring and good old advice and inspiration.  I look forward to getting involved with the web site.

			Welcome mate. Plenty of advice on here and you can learn a lot by reading existing posts too. I read every build in the Automotive section when I started here.
