    Hell of a nice guy too! Met him at Good Guy's Scottsdale a couple of weeks ago when he was hanging out with keith (ntaphse) at the Kaiser's unveiling.

    HUGE fan of Josh. He had my stuff back to me on time, as quoted and the parts looked outstanding.

    Send him all your stuff. -Abone.

    Josh does excellent work. I sent him a pair of so-so Dodge hemi valve covers and they came back outstanding. Couldn't of been happier!

    I'm thrilled at the positive responses guys! Makes my day :D


    Xderelict, I'll have fun putting your taillights back together; the special requests/repairs are my favorite things to work on. The jig you made is more than enough, thanks!

    This Ford hood ornamanent also had a busted key in the lock cylinder. Since the need of a lock was not worth the price of a locksmith, I filled it in and smoothed it out. That actually proved more difficult than putting the wingtip back on it because the cylinder kept g***ing out when I soldered it in.

    Josh,

    I just sent you an email about some bumpers I have for my '37 Buick but with all these great testimonials I'm afraid your backlog of work is going to start to stretch to months instead of weeks.

    Nothing better than word of mouth.
