Very nice work!

 

excellent , great job on the floor pans , mounts , and other fabrication

 

Nice work!!

 

You have nothing to be ashamed of brother, what you have shown is very,very good work.

How old are you?

 

thanks for the kind words fellas. here is the kicker, i am 25, and opened my shop full time when i was 20. i tend to get people coming into the shop looking for my dad or grandpa. that is always an awkward conversation

 

Great work man. Im 24 working my way through welding school. One day I hope to work at or maybe own a shop like this.

 

Tell them you fired them and took over!
Once again, nice work man!

 

more progress made on the coupe today. got a dago drop axle in for the car. and got it rolling supporting itself. here are the pics at the end of the 6th day of work this car

and rolled it out side for a good look

 

Hey cornfield, thinkin about making a alum. insert for my grille , I see that you did this. question is " does it let enough air in w/ no cooling issues?

 

i have never had any over heating issues with the ones i have done and shipped that i know of. just as long as there are enough holes and are decently sized i would say you would be fine

 

Thanks man, keep up the good work!

 

Nice stuff!

 

tell em dad an granpa saw you did such good work they retired an went fishing and didnt come back to work

 

just a shot of the shop today.

 

Damn nice work Corn. I watched your YouTube video of you making a pleated design firewall I guess it was. Very cool. I finally got my machinest buddy to make me a tipping die after observing yours in the video.
I do have a question....Do you make your belling dies for flaring the panel holes or did you purchase one of those expensive sets?
I'm very glad to see a young man using his skills to open and operate a hot rod shop. Its got to be a tough business start and you seem to be doing well. Congratulations and Good Luck!

i bought my dimple dies, there is a company that sells on ebay, i cant remember their name off hand. but they are a nice quality, and not as expensive as vansant. i have done 1/4 inch plate with no issues.

 

I Say, If you Got-It................Flaunt IT !

YOU GOT IT,
THANKS................................................................MORE !

 

Mike, you always do nice work.

 

started building a jig for some 32 frames today, here are some pics

 

here are a few more pics of the OT jeep i have had in the shop, finally got the underside all welded up and ground. its about ready to come off the rotisserie to do what left of sheet metal work

 

25 years old and living the dream. Good for you!

 

Beautiful work! I really like the International tailgate and the wide fives on the black coupe.
P.S. I wish I had a F.E.D. in my living room, I'll admit, I'm jealous!

 

thanks for all the kind words, i will keep the pics coming as i get more done

 

Wow, super clean work.
