New to here, bodyshop guy!
« on: September 11, 2009, 07:56:33 PM »

HI to everyone ive come over to here via Tazz666,
Im on the ClubCalibra . net site but he suggested that i show my face here.

Im going to copy and paste a post that ive put over on that site to introduce myself and what i can do.... so please forgive me if youve seen it on the other forum.

Ok some of you may or may not know that i also have 2 American cars.

Well i figured id better post some piccies up here, the first batch are of my 1976 Pontiac Firebird ( Trans am ) that im currently in the process of restoring, Tazz 666 has been helping me too bless him ( he may even learn something too LOL ).... heres a few to be getting on with, ive lots to do and it doesnt help having to do customers cars too!!   







Heres a few of my "sort of finished" 1980 Pontiac Firebird ( Trans am ) of course all work was done by myself including the "Metal flake and pearls".











This one runs on 19" rims with full BMW leather interior modified to fit.
If youd like to know more just reply and ill post!

Sorry to be a party pooper but we are starting to go off topic a little.

Can I suggest a 'Ask The Painter' board in the Bodywork section.
