I Love Vettes. Looks like the shop specialty in photos.
The first gen Jaguar XK coupe would really get to me if I got within fifty feet of one...Still does.
Once again...
Eye candy from a local (N. GA) yard sale site...
I would be ready to run like Hell if I saw a guy exit this vehicle carrying a violin case!!
Suicide Doors!!!
A Small Block Chevy..... the Fender P Bass of V8 engines. Virtually unchanged since the mid 50's and the standard to which all others are compared. They fit everywhere and there's more hop up parts for them than you could imagine.
Thanks it was a fun way to hide from my career for a couple years with minimal stresses after my kid was born.cool man
They started out just C1, C2, and C3 Corvettes, NCRS show prep, body off restoration to tube frame restromods. The shop will pretty much work on anything that goes fast. Even some 60-70s European stuff comes through.
a Jamison Tube frame for a 67 being fitted prior to powder coating. It got a lot of cool stuff in it... C5 suspension, original low power 427 and automatic fitted with a modern EFI unit, modern AC, etc. It was built for a retired Doc that owns a dozen killer original cars... he is thinning the herd and wanted a nice relaxing toy.
and finished... I did a majority of parts finding and ordering.
Also legit show circuit restorations... here is a 61 & 67 being assembled in the clean room
body dropped on the 67
the 61 stripped with the glass work just being started... DO NOT walk past the exhaust fans when they guys are working glass... I'm itchy thinking about it again!
man i love vettes as well cool
I was like a kid in a candy store! Pay sucked, but it was cool times with cool people, I watched, asked questions and listened... I learned a LOT even though I never put hands on them myself

Very interesting to see a 67 Sting Ray with all the modern under body components. Just wondering how it drives. Probably pretty nice.
My step great grandmother had one of these Nash Metropolitan cars when I was a kid.

I had a rare TR-250 with a Targa Top as a daily driver for several years. Should have never it.
One of my uncles had one of those. I heard he sold it.
He still has a pre-thirties Nash with a straight eight engine.
A picture that my brother took of my dad, having a look at the interior of the Nash restored by his brother.
I'm not sure what the exact type-name of the car is, but it looks something like this one:
