    I spend a good many fridays drinking beer at the shop next to his. I know that Squeeg's son took over the business and that he has some bad *** projects going through there. A 50's Merc was in there about a year ago that had me drooling. I have not heard anything that would suggest anything other than a solid reputation. I know he has a website. I am pretty sure its up.

    I see they are advertizing as a Real Rodders Wheels dealer. I have not been to there shop but I thought it was a body/paint shop and did not think it was a retail parts type outfit.

    Proud to call Lil' Duggie one of my best buddys.

    They charge a fair amount for the unreal work they do.

    Wait 'til you guys see some of the projects coming out in a future near you...

    Working on a Real Rodder's Wheels shirt real soon, it's NEAT-OH.

    every thing that has been written to this point is true. doug runs the shop now. his dad is down south semi retired. the work that comes out of there is unreal. their pricing is fair. their shop is clean and organized. and they are always busy. these are all points i look for in a quality shop. doug and the guys have done many projects for me. and i have always been happy. you wont be disappointed

    I went there on a shop tour last year when I was in town for Goodguys.
    The projects were awesome. The quality was excellent.
    I wish I could afford them to build a complete car for me.

    Always drooled over their work, heard nothing bad, and would pay higher than norm for their services and would expect it to be justifyably so.

    As of Nov.12th, shop rate is $55.00 per hour. Do you feel that's high for high quality original work? I don't. Depends on what you get DONE for THAT hour, its called VALUE.

    Step up or Step back,,, I am the neighborhood watch group...

    Hi, I saw Squeeg last night at dinner :)

    I didn't say "high" did I? I said "well"

    $55 an hour is pretty reasonable these days. The problem is that high quality work takes so many hours!

    $55 is damm reasonable and do agree that very high quality takes time...lots of it too.

    Up in this part of the woods, the "cheapest" door rate is $95, and the quality is no where near Squeeg's.

    Ya, I'm pretty sure with the original post being over four years old that Doug is charging a bit more these days... That said, everything that has been said about Doug and his crews quality and meticulousness is VERY true! He is one my favorite customers as far as louvering goes, because he always finds a way to challenge my skills... It better be damn perfect though!!!

    Need (can I call you by your first name?), the shop rate was posted today, not in 2007.

    I've met Squeeg, he's a very nice man and they turn out some outstanding work!
     
  28. I'm sure the neighborhood is feeling mighty safe knowing you and your group are right on top of things.
