NOT FAIR! Dyno Don works on high hp cars and I get THIS!
Dyno Don gets all the fast cars and i get a 1937 Chevy Master Deluxe right hand drive. I had to get rid of all the "mickey mouse" like the fuel lines, no wire to the fuel tank sending unit, vacuum lines......... BUT I admit this car was VERY CLEAN! the whole time working on it my hands were clean no dirt or grease! (even under the car) the more work i did the more he gave me!

Nice car. What are you going to do with the Tommy gun. Are you planning on running into Bonnie and Clyde?

That's not me! My job was to replace ALL hard lines are get the the car running right. I think I'm the only shop on the westside that will still work on old cars and my rep with all the locals is very good from what i hear, (sucks for me) I just hate "babysitting" cars.

Those old cars are neat.
I love the AC system
Why one brass and one silver carb?
A story related to the Tommy gun.
This is my story. I'm out cruising and I go thru this stop sign and I get pulled over by a local policeman.
I hand him my his driver's license, insurance verification, FOID card plus concealed carry permit.
"Okay," he says, "I see your CCW permit. Are you carrying today?"
"Yes, I am."
"Well then, better tell me what you got."
I said, "Well, I got a Glock 27, 40 cal. in my inside coat pocket. There's a 9mm semi-auto in the glove box. And, I've got a .22 magnum derringer in my right boot."
"Okay," the cop says. "Anything else?"
"Yes, back in the trunk, there's an AR15 and a shotgun. That's about it."
"Then he asked me, are you on your way to or from a gun range...?"
I replied "Nope."
"Well then, what are you afraid of...?"
To which I answered "Absolutely Nothing..."

Other than worrying about the paint, that would be great to work on. Talk about simple.
