    Hi guys

    im based in kent, UK. ive grown up taking things apart and putting them back together in my own style. my dad owned junkyards when i was a kid so thats where i grew up.
    Im a big fan or hot rods and kustoms, but to be honest i love wagons! slammed, flammed, satin or matt.
    im also a fan or mid 50s kustoms, sedan deliverys, panel vans n pick ups
    Ive been looking at this site for a while and ive gotta say that there is an amazing amount of talent on here, metal fabriction, painting, pinstriping, truly awesome stuff!
    i love seeing what going on in other peoples garages, so ill keep on looking.
    no projects at the moment but as soon as somethings in the garage ill post some pics.
     
  2. Welcome from a former Brit, now in Nor-Cal....Loads of other Brits on here, I'm sure you will recognise a few.

    Welcome aboard dude from just along the coast at Portsmouth.

    Your right about some talent being on here, cool isn't it!

    If you want to grovel to Mr Dennish than Cadbury's chocolate is the way to go, it will be in his mouth before his finished shaking your hand! Nice crew there, if you go there and meet antipidean Craig say to him, aren't you Puke Boy!!
