Event Coverage WOW Omaha, Gene Winfield and the SOT.

Fun weekend and I know you guys put in a ton of hours on that chop but it looked great. The owner must be very happy.
Highlite for me was Gene Winfield signing my jacket and taking a moment for a photo op with the 36 on the way out. Good show this year and was cool to have the Ridler winner there. Gary

 

Congrats on your award dick.
Gene is a class act.

 

It was awesome watching you guys work. Thats a ton of memories right there. Cangrats on the well deserved award. Gary

 

Wow! What an opportunity to learn from Gene! You must be excited. I know I would be.

 

Thanks Gary,sorry I didn't have a chance to bullshit with ya. That was a really busy weekend ,hardly got a chance to say hello to everybody. Rob

 

What is the set up on Genes torch

 

He said that he liked a 0 or a double oo and was using 1\8 and 1\6 rod. That guy can work a puddle thats a fact!

Just a lil pm bump

 

Hey this is Barry the owner of the Ford. The car is about ready to be primed. My goal is to have it at the World of Wheels Show this year painted. I now have a better relationship with my welder than my wife but the car is getting closer. Big difference on the interior trim panels. (see Pics)

 

Lots of work. I never imagined the hours required to complete a project like this. I hope to see you guys at WOW 2014.

 

Like seeing the progress Barry. Glad you left the rear window corners alone.
