Hello All, For work I'm a computer programmer and work for Garmin. For hobbies I'm a car guy. I'm restoring a 1960 Cooper Formula Junior racecar, and building a camper truck on a '57 F-350 Dually chassis. In my shop I have a 9" South Bend Lathe, Mig, Tig and Stick welders, and I'm collecting various tube benders for my projects. I also have a '66 Ford N-600 medium sized truck, just because it's cool. A lifetimes worth of unfinished projects really...

Welcome. Love to see some pictures of the projects. I really like the formula cars from those years. I told my wife I wish they made a kit for a two seater. Something fun I'd like to have.

As found hanging in the rafters of a barn in Texas. Lots to fabricate but this is the real deal honest to goodness Cooper one of 35 of this model made (by hand) that year in England.
