    Just thought I would throw a few teaser shots of what has been hap'nin here at the shop, it's gotten busy and I haven't been able to post much lately, so thought I would give you guys an update.

    Here are a couple overall shots and a few details.....

    Building a '30 roadster pick up and this blown small block chassis for a '32 roadster

    Hope everyone has a Safe and Peaceful Holiday.

    Take Care,
    Matt (HRD) :cool:

    Ahh, nothing says I love you, like belled holes and old fashion rivets.

    Happy Holidays, Matt and Denny

    Beautiful craftsmanship. The welds look incredible. I love the gusset made from tube up front.

    You guys just can't quit can you?;) Just when I think you've drug up all of the cool features to do on a chassis you have to go and cook up another one. BTW, no one has ever batted a thousand, trying to be the first?:eek::D
    Anyway, you both have a really good Christmas and New Year AND try to relax a bit, you deserve a break.
    I'm hoping to get down to see you after the New Year. I'll let you know before so you'll have time to hide 2008's new product releases.:rolleyes::)

    Thank you!

    Pictures:
    1791, 1795, 1799 and 1814 are all of the roadster pick up chassis, which is flat clear powder coated over a sand blasted surface.. We did that with the 125c roadster and it has worked out well....

    It's a neat little pick up, can't wait to see it on the ground..

    Great pics too, magazine or even calendar quality.

  29. Wow...but Santa's going to have a really rough time stuffing that beauty down my chimney. Could I just leave the garage door open and the milk/cookies in there?? That's some spectacular work...but the hats are the final touch. Well done.
