All of the metal repair. So my buddy I've been working with from revival resto mods is a hell of an engine builder does clean wiring and he's the guy who I've been using for my paintwork. At least a shop. So this is a build he sold and I'm just getting tagged in on all the metal work. This car the green bronco that I have in here right now the red 55 I'm going to pick up today that I did some work on the mini tubs on a couple weeks ago those are all projects from him I just do the fabrication. No customer involvement ideal directly with him I give him a little bit of a break on ShopRite and it works out good for both of us

So, its a basic ground up build on a newer ride. Akin to starting with a cowl on a 30s roadster.
What are the plans, and how much of that kind of thing do you usually end up doing at one time? I assume you do things to a certain point, then it leaves for a while, before coming back?

This one yes, it's getting all modern suspension, coyote 6r80 combination. I will go through and get the floor all replaced. Along with the rear frame section cowl and the firewall and then it will go back to my buddy shop where they will bolt everything together suspension wise. The front end gets a bolt-in kit that is all new subframe with connectors to the rear. I will end up welding it when it comes back. We're going to do lower quarters at some point along with all the interior bracing for the rear seat and the rear inner fender Wells

Thank you for the explanation. I was wondering how you do these big jobs.

Oh my mind misses those days, my old body...not so much

It sure is a lot easier to instruct other guys how to do stuff, then it is to do that stuff myself these days.

I doesn't seem to bother me to hold the trouble light, and fetch tools for my son. I don't mind watching and instructing him how to do this stuff, instead of me doing it, and having him watching me do it, like it was just a few short years ago.

Some Ford saving rust repair

Another one done and gone. Ride tech 4 link, new rear 9" housing and all the other odds and ends to make it all work!!

My Son, 32, was helping me finishing laying our bathroom floor. He has his own place that they are remodeling. We are now equals doing jobs with him making suggestions and just doing things with no direction. No more me telling him what to do. He even shows me easier ways to do things. I am not too hard headed to listen. Lots of new products out there now. Jim
