My Dad and I finally are getting our shop up and going!
 

Well it has kinda been in the works for awhile now, but never have made the leap into actually going through with it. And doing it after hours has gotten old when you work at a body shop all day lol. We are working this week getting projects and shop tools etc into the shop but here are a few projects that we are working on and have finished this year.

I will try and post up some updates on some on coming projects that we have coming up. :thumbsup:

Holy Coverups Batman
 

WTH
DANG
THAT CAMARO WAS A PATCHED UP..:wow:

Im sure you and your Dad will make it Awesome.

Good deal. Where is the shop? Hopefully I'll have some more work to send your way in the future.

I saw you had your sbc for sale away back. I'm guessing your doing the LSx swap. If you need any custom harness help or any connectors or anything let me know.

Congrats Paul! I am happy for you and your dad. I

I blame my father for getting me involved in this business and now years later he works for me. I wouldnt change a thing. Its some of the best time spent with him !
Good Luck to both of you. :thumbsup:

That is great. Keep up the great work. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Good stuff, Paul. Keep the updates coming. :thumbsup:

very cool. Set up a web page ASAP with as much past work as possible. Also list the owners of the cars and see if they are willing to have their contact info available to potential clients. That way past clients can give direct feed back to new potential clients....

just my 2 cents...

Where is the shop located? I have a custom framed '69 Dart and am considering bringing it to a shop for tin and body work when I get it rolling later this year.

Congrats and Good Luck! :thumbsup:

Congrats Paul, you gys do excellent work. :thumbsup:

Also interested where in Michigan you are opening up. I've been contemplating how much work to do myself and what to have done.

Good work! :thumbsup:

Thanks everyone for all the kind words! We are in the Kalamazoo area. I would say its Southwest, MI about 2 hours from detroit and and hour from Grand Rapids.
Feel free to get ahold of me anytime. If you wanna PM me or email I can give you my cell and can go from their. [email protected]
