Wow Great looking car. More pictures please.

By the way welcome from a former Limey

 

Hello & Welcome, Mindover, from nw. Pennsylvania.

 

hello and welcome fellow metalshaper.

 

Hello Mindover, from upstate New York. Always glad to have another limey on board. You guys always seem to have some outstanding skills as exhibited by your outstanding metal work.

 

Hello Dave!

How goes it with the T project? I have a rather rough 24T roadster body up here in Norfolk in need of a corner or two... saw the work you did on fellow Sidewinder Al's. Lovely.

Phil.

 

Another Welcome from Texas!

 

Thanks for the welcome. Al's A roadster or his 'T'? I did both!. who are you?- If you want your 'T' made good you only got to ask. Oh and I've been so busy making Bentley radiator shrouds that the steel 'T' buckets are on hold at the moment unfortunatley.

 

Thanks for the welcome! I have added a couple more photos.

 

Thanks I have added a couple more photos and thanks to every one for your welcoming mesages.

 

Oh me? I'm just a nobody in the East Coast Sidewinders - but you're Dave! Famous amongst the old gang of Kerry, Glen, Ady Grantham et al. Don't know if we've ever met - I seldom stray south of the Waveney but Glen was asking about bits for your project the other day. He's popping round Saturday.

 

He,s right, he is a nobody but we love him to bits.
Welcome from another nobody. Looks like you have some seriously high quality work going on there. Cool.

 

Nice to meet you.

That's is some real nice work.Can you share some progress pictures.I love discussing sheet metal shaping.If I could see some pictures I bet I will have some questions.

 

Your work looks great and welcome to the HAMB!!

Welcome to the HAMB Dave. You won't find anyone else from Colchester on here, they're all afraid of computers!

Hope business is booming. How's the DVD doing? I'd imagine there might be a few people on here interested in a copy.

Neil.

 

Neil,
how are you? I dont know what to do with all the work I have. The dvd is DONE and on sale have a look here www.metalshapingzone.com but its only for sale in europe at the moment. (I hope i am not in trouble with the h.a.m.b. but you asked)

 

Thanks! yes I will post some build up photos and a few other pics when I get the chance. I am always happy to answer any questions I guess its the teacher in me.

 

Cool...

Welcome to the HAMB.

 

OK dont tell me! Oh god that must mean that glen will be after a steel 'T' body from me and I dont know when I will find time to do it! There are a lot of brits on here! IsKerry on here?

 

Welcome from another brit newbie......

 

hi dave,jerry rickett here,hows things?.....

 

No Kerry, although Steve Dennish is on here so you can always get a message to him.
It was my T cowl section that Al drove around with for a couple of years. A new steel 24T roadster body would be great here too... me in mine!

 

Hello Jerry long time no see! Things are fine with me, how are you? how is your bro? You still living 'round here?

David

 

Good to here all is well in these days of doom and gloom. I guess people will always find the money where true craftsmanship is concerned.

Glen has got the remains of a 27 Tudor he bought from Phil (Monkeybiker) that he intends to build a modified from, not sure when he plans to start it though.

Kerry isn't on here but his boss is. Goes by the name of LimeySteve so you could PM him to contact Kerry.

 

Phil
We probably have met at some time, but nice to meet you anyway. Say hi to computer phobic Glen when you see him.

 

Welcome from another England chap...

Awesome metal shaping there! where abouts you from?

 

GREAT work!!! Welcome!
