I went and got my son's new wheels.
The guy selling them is a guy named Jimmy Parsons.
So we get to talking about my project and he asks if I want to see some of his work, why not?
Turns out this guy is Jimmy Parsons the race car driver from the sixties and seventies! Real nice guy, Spectacular work shop!
His wife is a nurse and fabricates cars on the side. I mean fabricates!
A chopped and channeled '57 chevy with a c6 chassis under it here, a totally btchin' split window bug over there. Old race cars in stunning condition all around, a hot rod t-bucket with a wild flathead engine that he drove from coast to coast!
His wife is a bit of a mustang nut
. She loves fox bodies, yet she showed me a '66 she totally customized.
They're both near genius in metal work.
Wow, I need to get to know them better.
Again, to top it off. It's Jim Parsons! I remember him from when I was a little boy.
I didn't feel right about asking to take pictures, so nothing to show.
What a cool craigslist add that turned out to be.
