I couldn't have said it any better. If you walk in this little shop, you won't see much. Yeah, they got some tools that most shops don't have laying around, but not many.

The two guys that work at this shop do it in there spare time. They turn out more stuff than most full time shops do. The quality is fantastic too.

They are a couple of talented guys that Scoti and I both call friends. We do that so they will work on our stuff...

Dang! He painted it red! Wow! It was nice when it was blue. I saw the pics of the Rambler, Keith has gone freaky on that hasn't he....

Yeah, I don't think Roger cared for the blue. We tried talking the owner into putting it back like stock (trim, emblems, color), but he wants flash & stripes down the side. I think the stripes will date the paint where as the solid color w/fact trim is a classic approach that just doesn't go out of style.

As for that Rambler . . .... slicked block, engine compartment, polished or plated everything . . ..... I think he knocked something loose upstairs w/that last spill he took on his 4-wheeler. But, if I had the means, I would do the same stuff as well. I'm just glad he left it a flathead.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
