Ant is (I think) a master mechanic. Doesn't hurt that he has every tool known to man. I would be outsourcing most of what he does. Speaking of Jay, I built a Monte Carlo Restomod 63 1/2 Ford Falcon Sprint Coupe that he bought. Video on Utube Nowadays sourcing parts of older cars is proving very difficult. I think Jay has two or three of the new 'printers' Scan the old part, print a mold or the replacement.! ... View more

Never said better; as a survivor of several major restorations - most people have no clue as to what it takes to restore a car (even in solid shape). And as Jay noted the car shows mostly buy a car, do a couple things to it an Wala! it is done for a large profit.

As I have stated before, after all the classic cars now 'restomodded' appearing on Mecum etc.  Are they going to put the last original '63 Vette Split Window coupe in the Peterson for people to see how it was???? ... View more
