am now disabled thanks to uk nhs!!!(they did a modified fowlers op when i didnt have athritis)

worked as a panel beater restoring classic cars,am hoping to be able to carry on working using an english wheel which means i can sit and work.

occasionaly do painting and mig welding for my son Alex on his misubishi starion and his mk3 2000e cortina.

i own 2 starions and an austin champ ex army jeep.
