How many cars do they work on at the same time? i know they have about 10 guys working there but still what a conductor one would have to be to design, order parts, and all the other stuff that needs to happen, i know what it is like around here and we are only bulding 3 right now. my hat is off to Rad Rides the stuff that comes out of that shop is truly an inspiration to every thing we do.

You know, the villain from Batman? The Riddler. "Riddle me this". J/K

At the Detroit Autorama, I believe, they have an award for the car that is judged the best. It has to make its debut at the Detroit show. The award is named the Ridler. I am vague on the history behind the Ridler award.

It's in memory of the late Don Ridler, an early promoter of the show.

we have a 3 guy crew, and have 7or 8 cars in the shop all the time.....which IMO is way too many for us but someone(kennyd) can't say no!

I have 2 other guys and we are always running several projects at once. Right now we have 4 and I find myself ordering and following up on parts all the time..................this 4-6 weeks for parts is a killer.............I need better wholesalers on air ride and stuff.
