Zapp’s Rod Shop now open

[Zapper]

Hello Everyone!
Starting a new venture at my home shop, Zapp’s Rod Shop, located in Cottage Grove.
I’ve been a member here on Wis collector car for about 4 years, although I haven’t posted much.
I grew up in a car family and old cars have always been a part of my life.
I’ve always had a dream to open up a shop someday and help others with their old cars, finally jumped into it.
We are focusing on 1928-1980ish vehicles, and anything from minor maintenance to complete restorations.
Things have started out really well and I have added some pictures of a few customers cars we currently have in the shop.
Visit our our FB page at Zapp’s Rod Shop or http://www.zappsrodshop.com for updates and progress on customer cars.
If there is anything we can do for you, or you have any questions, just let me know, or just pass the word along!
Thank You!
Jeff Zapp-

Honest work at fair prices, stop in and see us!

This is Gene’s 35 Ford Coupe. It used to have a Chevy Motor, recently swapped to a Ford 302.
We are going to reinstall the A/C compressor, condenser, build A/C lines, ETC… check it over for cruising season, and he’ll be all set!

1957 Corvette has been coming along well.
Added the Dual Quad set-up, and installed a new engine and dash wiring harness.
Next we need to go through the brakes, get it fired and get it back on the road!

Work continues on Mike’s 67 Nova.
No paint work, running with the original patina look! It’s really cool!

I decided to switch my Cutlass over to FITech fuel injection.
Cant wait to see how this system works.
Still in the process, but should be up and running later this week (If I get time to get back at it)

Had enough of the Edelbrock carb.
New FiTech system is in place, laid out he fuel lines and still need to do all the wiring.
I apologize, Engine compartment is all stock 1972 (except for the intake), and has not had any detailing.
I drive this car, and rarely show it, and if I do, I don’t open the hood.
Please don’t judge my shop over this car, it’s the Perfect summer cruiser for me when I get time to get out and go for a ride.
