I'm not sure which dude is in the one photo above, BUT dang he blends right in with the wall behind him! I had to look about 3 times to before I notice it WAS a real human and not a painting!

That's Chuck... He's THE MAN!!

And, he was admiring the Monte Carlo model I bought off you this weekend.. He said he's NEVER seen detail like that on a model before.

GREAT pictures Jeff!!! The Roadrunner is a '70 though  

Ya know what's funny, is I had that in my original write-up.. But you know, I own a '69, so obviously everything else is a '69 too!  

I LITERALLY just finished editing, uploading, organizing and posting 500 pictures into multiple albums.. My eyes are toast...

It's okay, for the first 4 years I owned my Charger....I only knew of second gen. Chargers as far as Mopars went. I look at old car traders I had and the only cars I circled were '68-'70 Chargers Oh btw, you got a PM

I'm glad to do it!! I take over 500 pictures/week at various shows (and the shop). I don't post all of my show pictures here (only on Facebook because it's so simple). If I did that you'd probably be saying "Oh no, here he goes again!"  , but seriously, I go NO WHERE without at least 3 cameras on me. (Ya never know when you'll have a dead battery!)

Chuck & Blair are going to be taking my buddy's Vette in for a make-over soon. I sold him this Vette about 5 years ago. He gave it to his son, who at the time was early 20's. He abused it pretty good and it doesn't even resemble "my car" any more... But soon, it'll be a pretty cool ride once again!!

Well guys, it's been a couple of weeks since I updated my thread here.. So here goes nothing!!

First, the Hemi Belevedere(with 43 ORIGINAL MILES on it).. It's really coming along!!



ALL STEEL hood!!





















Next, as you can see, Project Polished Metal'Maro is shaping up nicely!!









And the Onneville is MASSIVE!!







To be continued...

[jb666]

Now, on to Chuck's finished product... This is one kick-ass welding helmet!!! This thing pops in the sun!!
















Till next week, that's all, folks!!

[Back N Black]

Awesome pics, beautiful cars. I'm glad to see that you like all makes and models.

Man, what a feast for the eyes! Thanks!

[jb666]

Sorry it took me a few days to get things up... Things have been crazy busy around the old ranch...

There's lots of good stuff going on at the shop these days, and over the next few weeks I'll have some GREAT new shots of never-been-seen-before (by this site anyways) vehicles...

Feast your eyes on this variety...

Can you say twin turbo?? This GN owner can...















Next, the Camaro's front subframe assembly arrived and is looking mighty fine.









Next, the motor going into the 'Maro.. out of an Escalade.. But first, some minor modifications pumping the HP up ever so slightly are in order...





The big ole Onneville is looking mighty fine all wet sanded and buffed to a mirror-like finish.











And finally, a shot of the new addition.. A skull (on the right) that Chuck made for me for a project I'm just starting..







And that is about all for this week... Stay tuned for more!!

Working on a '73 Camaro right now..Gotta love the lines on that car..Even if it's a Chebby..I've always been a fan of that bodystyle Camaro with the flat rear window...Done right, those cars are badass...

Absolutely agree... It's by far one of my favorites..

awesome pictures Jeff !! that buick gnx thingy looks a serious machine    , thanks for posting

[jb666]

Hey guys! I figured I'd try to get the pictures up the same day I took them, instead of being lazy.. So here goes..

I couldn't wait to get in there today. I heard the front suspension on the Camaro was in, along with the new motor sitting in place... When I walked in and saw the wheels my jaw dropped. This is going to be a stunning car when it's done...























Here's a new addition (to the new shop, that is.. This has been in storage for years). For those of you that like the old Porsche's, feast your eyes on this..













Misc shots...











Check out this shot.. it's the shop yacht.. It's called the SS Bulge. It's pretty cool, and is on dry ground for the winter..





Here's a Caricature of it's captain...



Here's Chuck out enjoying a picture perfect afternoon one his favorite wheelie-bike...



And this is what I call cruising in comfort...





Well, there will be plenty next week, I'm sure!!

[jb666]

Ok guys, here we are again, another Saturday has come and gone.. But I didn't miss my chance to head to the shop this weekend!!

Lots going on.. So I'll get right to it. The paint on this classic is going to look like GLASS. Chuck buffed out a small area, and I couldn't capture the depth of the shine, but it's awesome.









I should have held something up against the paint so you could see what I was seeing...











And WHOAH... talk about detailed work. This is AMAZING!



Our friend Bob saw the gauge panel and couldn't contain himself...



On to the next classic... which is seeing some color..











The Camaro... looking lean and mean!!







Chuck's getting into the Halloween spirit!!



And you guys warned him not to put this gas mask on.. but did he listen?? NOPE!!



Chuck's new shifter handle..



And finally, this incredibly cool ride in the spray booth... it's the epitome of perfection.













And that's it, until next week!!
