Time to blow out them cobwebs

Time to put some miles on this old farm truck now that we have the front end finished and the alignment done from , they are my go to for alignments, powder coating, custom welding and of course all your diesel needs 😉

Can you do some metal work on my Bronco? Sure no problem 😬, just a typical Wednesday in the shop, down the 🐇 hole we go ☹️ Bronco life

We put this car together about 9 years ago for my brother and he has decided to let it go, let me know if you are interested before I post it, probably one of the nicest 62 Impala crew cabs around, car started off as a rust free 58k original mile car that we painted and detailed the engine bay, straight slick paint, all jams painted, engine bay all painted, trim and chrome in great condition, interior original except the carpet that’s in great condition except for the front seat is thin, that is probably the worst thing on the car, power front disc brakes, 4 corner air ride, 18x10 rear wheels 10x8 fronts, retro sound radio, very reliable car runs like a sewing machine, 9 years and I don’t think there’s a chip or scratch on it, no disappointments SOLD

I just wanted to congratulate Robin on a second place finish in a highly competitive class at the world of wheels Chicago this past weekend especially because the car still has a 1980s lacquer paint job, that’s impressive to me 💪 we finished this car about 2 years ago it’s rolling on a spec chassis with a LS3 dressed old school, 6 speed trans, mini tubbed with 315s out back wrapped around the 19 and 20 inch Billet Specialties wheels, the car was built to be driver friendly and reliable and think we achieved that 💪 #1957

Needed something warm to post today, tired of this cold weather 🥶 come on spring let’s go, probably shouldn’t have let this one get away ☹️, happy hump day

Merry Christmas from my family to yours

I don’t ever complain about stuff on social media but this was unacceptable, I was in Columbus for show staying at there co host hotel , on Friday night my truck was parked in trailer parking when mine and like 15 other trucks were broken into, so I cleaned that mess up and Saturday night parked right in front of the hotel and they broke another window and got in again along with another 10-15 trucks being parked in front, under a light and surveillance camera and having on site security supposedly monitoring the parking lots, my guess my truck probably has around 8k in damages including paint, interior, glass, that being said I will not be back anytime soon, and I definitely can’t recommend the co host hotel for Goodguys

Had a great time with my kids last weekend Des Moines it was great to hang with the car family all weekend, you know who you all are, you guys and gals are the best and I’m honored to be part of that, the best part for me was watching my kids face when I told them both they could take the car for a cruise around the fairgrounds, next up is Goodguys in Columbus 💪
