Sorry 'bout that

Postby irondance2003 » Fri Feb 02, 2007 4:29 am

Working in two places at the same time can cause things that should not .
so I posted before this went in so here be me.

Been in this forum a few years now and just realised that I had never intro myself when I posted and read 1st post.Sorry 'bout that..
the top side of 50, metal artist /TD builder on the quiet.
got a few web sites www.australianteardroptrailers.com being the only one that is working at present (better metal artist than web site builder)
At present building second TD ,first went to hotrodder who like the shape I was never realy happy with the look of it so away it went .
Am now on my second a woody with alloy stone gard front and an alloy rear for my own safty on any night driving.
Ex boat builder so love wood but to stiff these days to get into full flight so a ply skin and a few not to fancy bits and I am happy.
Mary-Anne the other half and I travel a bit these days so back to the TD for fun.
My other love is Morris Minor Motorcars most in the yard last year before Mary-Anne put her foot down was 5, a 4 door ,2door coup,Van and the ever present UTE and aspare 4 door.
Now just have the ute and the good front half of the 2 door another project as I will graft the 2d onto the ute chassis asap.
Well that be me.

How do you get time to build you must be on the computer all of your time.
I just spent 4 weeks in here and still can't find the exit door.
Only thing is where are all the picks of folks builds still looking for that door ?

Welcome to the funhouse Tony. We don't got no door out. You just have to look at enough pictures, post lots of your own pictures and find Aunti's bubble oil. (warning adictive and intoxicating) ;)

Oh by then you forget you wanted out. 8)

Hope you find your handles. Hard to believe you can't just go to to local store and pick them up.

It's hidden behind the 'Hall of Fame' words. ;) And I've seen your mug somewhere.
