    so I have been waiting a little while before I started talkin about it, but I have just signed a lease on a new shop in Ventura, over 3500 sq ft, with a showroom and a store. I've been working on it for about 2 weeks and probably another 2 weeks or so before I can start working out of there. I'll try to post some pics as I can. The Open House will be on Sunday Aug. 31st in the afternoon after the Primer Nationals(which is about 5 minutes away)BBQ and probably a live band. All Hambers are invited and plenty of parking for everyone...

    That's awesome, Dan! There was about 20-25 guys at KiwiKevs BBQ the last couple years. Primer Nats is my favorite show. This is just another reason to look forward to that weekend...
     
  11. Good news Dan! I'll be there. There will be a BBQ at my place Saturday after the show so it will be a fun, busy weekend. I can't wait.

    thanks guys, hey Tim, where you based out of these days? if you're ever in the neighborhood it would be great to have a beer with you, or a sarsparilla......beer would be better for me....maybe I can convince you to come down for the open house, and maybe light a bike on fire and ride down mainstreet?

    Congrats Dan! It's great to have something like this here in Ventura. I have a measly small shop that I truly enjoy working on my cars in. If you need a hand or something, let me know and looking forward to the Open House!
