    Yes,I did a search.Its not here(I hope)
    This video almost made me shed a tear,but my manly nature prohibits me to do so.
    I hope it's still there and we support these places.

    Man, it took a dude from Cali to make me appreciate a place I've driven by a dozen times.

    My wife is from Abilene.

    Thats a great shop and story to go with it.. Thanks for sharing what you saw!!:D And that 39 0r 40 pickup was a sweet looking ride..
    also the comment about Cali, I grew up on a working ranch in cali with the same values,somtimes perception of a place is not always how it is. But for sure alot of it has changed and not for the better. Happy to be in Texas!

    Wish the guys in the video would wear at the very least some basic eye and ear protection.

    Corporate America is ruining businesses like these. I worked for a mom and pop mechanic shop that was just put under by "the man" because my boss (the owner) was an honest stand up man. It's a shame, but it's nice to see family run businesses still exist.

    Good luck to them and hopefully more generations to come.
