Now, I'm starting with a clean sheet a new bussiness.To make a "fresh" start I want to finish my projects which I didn't have time to this past year. I was trying to keep the shop and my employees busy. One door closes and another door opens, to work with cars must be my calling because every time I try to get away I end coming back to the passison of speed & horsepower.

I come from the small aircraft industry and I am very glad I did not have to reply on it this year or I would have been in bad shape. Our family has been in the light GA business for 50 plus years. I have been expecting this pitfall year to come for some time, which is why I started the car business 2-1/2 years ago. I still do own a manufacturing business building wood aircraft propellers that I am trying to sell as the liability is to much deal with anymore.
We (musclerodz) did very well as a whole for the year. I don't know about our profits yet, but I know gross sales is over double 2007.
