    Hi everyone, my name is Billy and Im addicted to hot rods(Hi Billy). I hope to make some friends and share/gain knowledge here. I have been a professional body technician for six years. I have a great respect for old timers, especially pioneers of this beautiful lifestyle. I am building/driving a 1963 C20 on air ride, and have also co-founded the Blacktop Kreepers CC in New Mexico. Thanks for reading and thanks for having me!

    I see it now. Do you work at a dealership or just a shop?

    its an independent shop, I worked at a dealership for awhile and I got really tired of warranty shit, particularly the customers that were unhappy because their soft top jeeps had excessive wind noise

    Man, you aren't lying. Also, these insurance companies are getting us left and right too. They'll pay these contracted PDR guys $1000 to push to paint and then give me 2 hours to fix what they messed up. On top of that, our estimators want that gross money they save by not purchasing OEM parts and then we have to spend an hour getting the gaps right on stuff that's stamped differently.
