    Randy your work is inspiring. Years ago I watched C*** Nawrocki work some of his majic in steel on some 540K Mercedes and I was awestruck. Seeing such fit and finish on steel panels is truly an artform. On the other hand Marc and Luc and Marcel Delay are not any slouches. One trip to their shop would convince anyone other wise.

    Hopefully you will have a post that goes thru the shaping process to such a beautiful finished piece. Your son is lucky to be learning such a talent as well-Jim

    Bill,
    The new front end is all we sent to Wisconsin. The car we are re-bodying is still under construction and we are planning to take it and another '41 to Thompson.

    I must say that i have had the pleasure to help randy do some panel work. I thought to do this kind of work you needed to have ten's of thousands of dollars in tooling,with some smoke and mirrors. WRONG Randy does this the old fashion way by hand and sweet. he is a true craftsman and my friend.

    Thank you all for the compliments, i do appreciate it.

    wingnutz - Sure you can visit.

    Mule Farmer - My suggestion would be to check out www.metalmeet.com See if there's a regional meet planned for your area and try to attend our big annual gathering in Oblong, IL. mid Oct. You'll be able to work one on one or with a group. All hands on and real pros there to answer your questions. For $100.00 it doesn't get any better.

    glenn33 - We'll have to set something up.

    X-G***er,

    Which blue Willys? there are two on my website. One runs a BBC and the other I think runs a Hemi.

    Randy,
    I'll give you a call to see what times will be best for you. Tim from Rantoul wants to come the same weekend if that's OK...
