that sounds like a big undertaking. as long as you crunch some numbers before hand and make sure that it is profitable and worth your time, i'd say go for it. you gotta remember that no matter what you do, there are always assholes who dont want to pay or will complain about the quality of work no matter how good it is. take EVERYTHING into consideration when doing the numbers. something will always bite you... sounds cool.............good luck
: I'd like some feedback from the clubs members please, Both positive & negative + any suggestions.
: I live in Vegas and I'm thinking of opening a shop to recondition/restore/rebuild pre 79 cars & trucks, but not limited to, primarily Fords/Mercury. Do the vehicle finding if nessecary and transporting, but mainly cleaning up and get them in "whatever" condition the owner is willing to pay for. This would include powertrain mods and the like.
: I would greatly appreciate your opinions on this. Maybe this is a way to save allot of good cars/trucks from the crushers. The owner would be responible for licensing/smoging but I would make them as legal as possible for the state they are in. There is many plating, machine, uphostlery, paint, trans, suspension shops in Vegas to choose from so the owners options would only be governered by the money you would be willing to pay.
