newbie saying hi

[dustyrustee]

hullo....keeping this short but sweet.....

my name is Ian and I am in deadmonton....

owned and operated my own machineshop and metal fab business most of my life....ran the gammut, but mostly designed and custom built special machinery and tools for manufacturing plants of all types....and I can fix just about anything too....so I am a creative person.

I have been dinkin around with cars off and on since 1968....

my passion is old english stuff....anglias, thames, austins, etc. and love the old trucks and vans....and last generation el caminos....

If you are stuck for advice on anything to do with welding and machining, I have over 40 years experience and can maybe help out....:eek:

cheers........

Welcome here Ian, nothing wrong with some of that English stuff, all you have to remember is the polarity is the other way around,;)

I have been to your fair town a couple f times and liked it there each time, it's a fairly easy place to find your way around, even if you guys do drive on the other side of the road.

Cheers, John
