    We picked up Brian’s 1974 Dodge Dart for some performance upgrades.
    New carb and intake, installing a set of headers, aluminum radiator, swapping the rear gears and adding a pair of mini-tubs.
    More performance items to add again later, but we are off to a good start!

    Little Riley was all smiles even before we got his Truck back onto the Go-cart style chassis!
    Big or small, we’ll do them all. The smiles are what its all about!

    We picked up Jeff’s 1964 Impala SS for some fab work and metal repairs. Numbers matching true SS Impala.
    Jeff is doing the restoration himself but wanted a little help with a few things.
    From minor repairs, to complete restorations, we’ll do it all!

    Progress has begun on the 442. Started getting the Vintage Air unit mounted under the dash. More pics to come as we continue the build!

    Picked up this VERY nice 1969 Olds 442 yesterday from a customer in the Milwaukee area.
    Car is about 75-80% completed. We are going to add Vintage Air, and finish the assembly so its ready for
    some comfortable cruising next spring!

    Next into the shop is this 1975 Vega that we picked up Tuesday to help the owner get it back running and driving.
    It has been off of the road for quite a few years. Thanks Santino for reaching out to us and letting us help you with your project!

    1962 Falcon in the shop to have us install the wiring harness.

    Owner installed a JW Rod Garage Mustang II front end, Moser 9″ W/ 31 spine axles and a Big Block 454 Chevy / TH400 combo!

    We’ll get it up and running for the customer, and have it ready to drive onto the trailer to head back to his house for the next step in his build.

    I’m heading up to the original Symco Shakedown show in Symco.
    Been there almost every year since the show started.

    Anyone else going to Symco this year?

    Yeah, weather wasn’t the greatest last week, hoping for better weather tonight, and hopefully a better turn out :)
