Congratulations man, glad to see you are doing something you love. It is a great feeling not hating your job. You figure you spend a lot of time at work, it makes it easy when you are doing something you enjoy.

Also great work, body work is an art and takes a lot of talent...with that kind of talent you are going to enjoy a long career.

I envy your ability. I suck at body work because I haven't got the patience at all for the whole fill/sand/fill/sand/fill/sand/prime/sand/etc. process. That and drywall are my two weakest trades.

That first one is a Camaro? Hard to tell what the hell it is, as there's almost NOTHING left of that poor thing - at first glance, from the shape of the back half, I was thinking maybe it was a Maverick or Comet or something...

Haha, that's what I thought too. Nice work

The Mystery Machine is the sweetest one

[Cwalk]

congrats on the new job!!! why does it look like some of those cars have bullet holes. j/k. How much does your shop do resto's for? really curios.

 

[MAC'n89Blckstng]

Our resto rates vary from 65-85 an hour. And yes that is a 68 Camaro. Original owner RS 327 Powerglide, were gonna be putting Baer brakes and a fat man suspension on it........................when the time comes lol. Thanks for all the feedback guys!!! And hopefully my car will be painted in a month.

Very nice work man

 

[GTOreturns]

What town is that? I KNOW Ive seen that 65ish Malibu with the big rims!

 

[MAC'n89Blckstng]

Its in Long Valley, he has brought it to Lead East before. The car is stunning, all autometer gauages have replaced the stock gauges, it has HID's, and Bear brakes. Ran 12's shifting easy on street tires.

 

[GTOreturns]

Nahh Ive seen em in Great Meadows/Independence getting gas at Shell on RT 46

 

[GTOreturns]

Do you drive GT? Do you go to Island?

 

[MAC'n89Blckstng]

oh yea I went last night, some pretty fast cars were there.

 

[GTOreturns]

I didnt make it to street car racing. Now that I think about it I should have. Yeah I believe I met you there 2 years ago. I asked you what your screen name was on SN. Now it rings a bell. Good news about the job!

 

[MAC'n89Blckstng]

yea im psyched about it, if it really goes well my boss said he's gonna bring us to SEMA. woo hoo

 

[QUICK91LX]
