Body Fabrication

Hey guys.

Seeing as i'm still in High School, my high school does a "Graduation Project." Due to the fact that I absolutely love my truck, I am going to do a body fabrication project.

However, I need a "Mentor" to come and look at it weekly and sign off to say that I have been doing it correctly, etc.

I'm just wondering if there are any FTE members near Richlands, NC that want to be my "mentor."

It say's you have to be a "experienced" person that knows how to do it, but, hell, even if you've never done it before but get the just of it, and live near Richlands and can make weekly stops, can someone help me out?

All I need is a signature and for you to fill out this one paper saying you promise to come and see it and blah blah blah.

Thanks!

Good luck with your project. Sorry I can't help you. I pass through Richlands on occasion but not enough to offer assistance. I do have a friend at work with family in Beulaville and I'll ask him if he knows anyone that can help. Good luck with your play as well. Probably not too many high schoolers doing a 4x4 project and a play.

My very first word was Ford, all of my family everywhere drives a ford. Let me tell you something! I love my 1985 F150. Too bad I can't drive her to opening night.

And, well.... she's not a 4x4. But i'm gonna make her look good. And if you could check up on your friend in Beulaville, that'd be awesome. XD I'd even drive it to Beulaville if I need to.

No luck. There was a guy that did body work about three miles outside of Richlands heading towards Beulaville but my friend says he is not in business anymore.

Certainly you could take it to a local mechanic and ask for his help.

Good luck.

Not sure how far that is from New Bern... I'd help you out if I could.
