Project "Hit Bids"

I've done a couple of projects for other people while it was just a hobby/side business. Now that Throwback Customs is my full time gig, here is my first paying client. A 1971 Convertible Challenger.

This will set the tone for your business as it's the first paying customer.

I agree. I've done a couple of paying customers but they were part time and no deadlines and pretty much I could do what I wanted. This should prove interesting :).

I love building cars but I'm not sure I would want it as my employment - especially as a business owner. There is something peaceful about being able to work on cars as I desire without the high pressure deadlines of my day job.

I wish you well in your business venture.

I hope your new business venture is way more pleasure and passion that significantly outweighs the pain that crops up from time to time.

:cheers:

I'll be watching this as I also have a 71 Challenger build going (slowly). Any vitals on the build? Suspension, engine, etc?

This will be nice.

Nice going on your own business. Your other builds have been great!

Thanks Wes. Not sure yet on manufacturers but will be utilizing a full chassis, big brakes, a new model HEMI and auto.

Full chassis? Can't go wrong with a Roadster Shop!

Good to see you are making some progress!
