The ramblings of a welder /fabricator /metalshaper... Fighting rust daily to keep heritage cars going for as long as possible.

Follow me to see some cars thought to be unrepairable, resurrected and saved from the cold jaws of a bailer.

What's now a classic car but isn't a classic in your mind? For me it's this honda s2000 that's in for some preservation.

I didn't even have a driving licence when they rolled on to the streets!

I will Post some pics in the tread for the ongoing work.

If you bought the base model, you saved the most money, but they would never let you into CPAC.

Remaking some slip rings for an electronic clutch

When machines get older and manufacturers no longer support them, you have to get creative.

A bit warm yesterday, the apprentice found the coldest spot in the shop for a kip while on the clock.

Good to see I'm not the only one who likes rusty old cars then.
It’s fine.

Everything’s totally fine.

This is just a small selection of my dollies, and slapper. Staying on top of tool maintenance is key to consistent results and longevity of tools.

I have got some that are nearly 80 years old.
