I was very lucky, my folks ran a body shop and accumulated a variety of junkers out back. When I was 14 Dad said I could have anything I could fix up. Some of it was pretty sketchy but it got me to where I wanted to go. A VW station wagon, and old Galaxy 500, a AMC Gremlin, a '69 Chevy C10, a Mazda with a Wankel engine, and maybe I'm forgetting a couple. By the time I was in high school I was working for the shop, so Dad issued me a shop pickup ('72 Chevy) to pick up and deliver parts all over Iowa and southern MN. I drove that until I decided to get into engineering and went to college. Bought a brand new Ford Courier mini pickup that the dealer kept discounting to get rid of it, it was kind of ugly, I think I paid $1800. I drove it 56 miles each way every day, and it had 200k before it literally fell apart. Only new vehicle I ever owned, I've bought low mile used vehicles since.

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
