    Like the man said, just go up to Vallejo and see Matt Seret.

    He punched louvers in the hood of my 36 Ford, as well as quite a bit of other metalwork.

    Great work, great guy.

    Give him a call at 707-363-2841

    Thanks guys, I should of figured on Seret. I'm also down Salinas' way pretty often.
    I'll check out both these options.
     
  9. Check out Jason at Bear Metal Customs. It's a beautiful drive down the PCH to the scenic town of Morro Bay!

    I want to check out Seret for sure, even if not for louvers.
    I would definitely buy that press, but I would need it delivered to my shop here in the city, any takers?;)

    I'm in Rocklin right now (100 miles from Reno),if you pay for gas,I could go get it for you :rolleyes:
     
  18. Check us out when you're in Salinas next time. We'll be punching the hood on my 59 chevy biscayne pretty soon here. Gives you an idea of how big the press is.

    Nick's is a full size press designed to do car hoods. You need that if you want to do more than small panels. You need a deep throat on the press. I've used your machine and it should punch any hood you can throw at it.
