My customer is selling this 75 datsun 280z. It was at another shop for many years and he has decided to sell. Someone has already replaced the driver floor pan and frame rail connector. The same work is needed on the passenger side as well as finishing work on the driver. The car does start but I have not rolled it under its own power. The plan is to continue work until it sells so the price goes up slowly. We plan to fix the rust and any needed mechanically to make it drive. Let me know if you are interested and please share if you think you know someone who would be.

We've started back on rust repair on the El Camino. Inside the cubby behind the seat was a common rust spot due to water intrusion from the bed and back window. In a previous post we made a new quarter panel patch to hopefully access the rust from the outside instead of crawling about in a cramped space. Now we start removing and rebuilding the inner structure.

We had some new parts to fabricate for the front lower firewall. Once the floors were installed welded and seam sealed we painted the bottom and the firewall so we could mate the frame and body again. We still have more rust repair to do but for now we are going to move on for a little while back to another project.

Alright, so we've been quite busy with the end of the year and the start of this one. so I'm pretty behind on planning for the current year. We have some exciting stuff in the works. We are starting a social media campaign to continue to build our community. We will be weekly posting on Facebook, Instagram, tiktok, and YouTube. To be clear social media is not my passion nor is it in my skill set so hang in there as I try to make it a habit posting on each. The content will be slightly different for each. Facebook will consist of progress updates using pictures. Instagram will have unnecessarily dramatic video content of our work. Tiktok will be my feble and confusing attempt at humor. Youtube will have more serious content relating to behind the scenes of running a hotrod shop. Feel free to look us up on these platforms if you are interested in supporting us.

Lots of work has been done on the 62 Impala. The engine and transmission were caked in a thick layer of crusty grease and dirt. The engine, transmission, and suspension was all stripped cleaned and reassembled with new seals and a fresh coat of paint. With all new steering links, the frame is ready to be mated back to the body once the floors and rust repairs are finished.

We are going back and forth on our two rust repair jobs. While watching paint dry, I fabricated a lower quarter patch for the El Camino. We are going to address some more rust but I like to use the original to make a template before cutting it off.
