So, how was the cl***??? Anyone got pics??

 

The cl*** was amazing. I will get some pics posted tomorrow. I would suggest everyone to take this cl***. Gene is an amazing man, plus Alex Gambino was there to ***ist. Bo Huffs son junior was there, also Jere Kirkpatrick from valley forge in the cl***. Learned a great deal, and to think outside of the box when it comes to tooling and fabrication. I am going to be taking more of them, I can not express enough how amazing Gene is. Also so impressed with Alex, he was a great ***istant. Gene would ask Alex, what do you think, or do you love it. Both custom builders have a great deal of respect and their friendship shows.

Also a side note, for anyone that takes one of his cl***es in the future. Learn to sit back, watch, learn, ask questions to understand..... Not to show a man that has built more cars then some car companies that he is wrong when he is not, or to try and "teach" students it shows your lack of respect, knowledge, skill and false pride.
Sadly one of the ones that did this is here on the hamb.

While I was there EBW from here, let me stay at his house. A great guy and friend. Thanks you again Eric for everything.

I will do a review of it when I post pics. I didn't get a lot of pics as I was taking video.

 

Also Jere from valley forge had some great tools that he gave Gene, his quality of work is great. His knowledge of metals and welding was crazy. Hope one day to be that knowledgeable. He gave Eric and myself some great tips on welding, hope to be able to learn from him in the future.

 

Here is a quick one

 

Looking good! Thanks for the pic and I look forward to more. Wish I could have been there.

Well said Matthew..
Gene and Alex were great.. learned a great amount.. good times.
I have to download my pics which will take awhile.

 

Can a complete beginner take the cl***.. I guess you have to start somewhere may as well be with the best of them right?

 

Yeah for sure,
there where a couple guys that had little experience really. That would be awesome if you took the cl***>

 

Then I'm going to save up!

 

thanxs

it was good to see ya , and I didn't lose the blanket!

I just hope I have half the speed gene dose in my later years ....he's amazing

 

Your welcome Alex. I totally agree about his speed. I walk fast and I had a hard time keeping pace with him!

Gene and yourself are true masters at this. I am honored to have had the chance to experience it.

 

Glad you didn't lose the blanket... hope it didn't take too long un tieing those straps haha

And yes.. Gene is almost 86 and never stopped.. amazing man!
Thanks for helping Gene and us!!
Stop by next time you are here.

 

Got his autograph in Cincy back in January at the custom calvacade.......VERY VERY VERY Super nice man. Talked to me like he had known me all my life. Not many of these type people left..............

 

Like to do it sometime. Bonneville and El Mirage take up my travel time and $$ these days.
