I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

Welcome, Brady!
Cool business! You get to buy all the parts with the customer's money... Now THAT sounds like fun.
I can imagine gleaming over the finished product and sharing in the customer's pride. Plus, what learning experiences... You can certainly share those with us!
Good luck, buddy! We hope to see some of your "projects in process"... GOOD advertising!

Hi Brady,welcome from Scotland, there's a few guys here into 4-53 Detroits,most noteably Grigg.
I'm sure you'll bump into him over at the BigBolt section.
I'm sure you can share tips.
Good luck
Jock.
