madness!

I love to roof. metal work artistry!

How do you go about about it? i would luv to try one day...
Did you use the original vw roof? did you have some reference material or articles to help you that i might be able to source? Or do you know of any?

brillant job.

I make stuff as I go.....no plans just whatever comes out of my head. Basic tools like mig/grinder...etc, a bead roller comes in handy. I'll be getting a shrinker/stretcher tool soon.......for the next brain storm project. Not sure what project will be yet.....i have a spare bug and a notchy sitting around that need to be raped.

Maybe try Youtube its a good place to look for ideas on metal shaping.

Not sure what mods just yet, maybe similar to my last choptop but with vw935 fenders. Also have a heap of blowers and turbos sitting around waiting to get used. I do have an old type4 efi setup somewhere hidden in the shed as well.
