When a Fabricator Retires

When Wayne Bagby, of Augusta, Kansas, retired as metal fabricator for Boeing, he didn’t stop fabricating. He just turned his attention to his next passion….restoring his 1936 Chevy pickup.

You don't have to be into old cars and trucks to admire Bagby's work. In this month’s Fabricator Magazine (linked from the Wichita Eagle), he details how he used his automotive skills to rebuild the drivetrain while putting his fabricating skills to rebuild the bed and tailgate.

The results are amazing.
