Body wood and Restoration service - 03/16/22 02:26 PM
Well, my company deciding to let a whole division go (200+ people) after 22 years has helped make the decision for me to start my own official business. For years I have serviced, sold, and installed packaging equipment from simple tape machines to very involved food modified atmosphere vacuum machines. While I’ll continue with that side of the business, I’ve decided to also incorporate my antique car restoration “hobby” into the business. While I will no longer offer full restorations in most situations, I will offer many of the services I’ve learned to do through the years. I will still be doing roofs which includes the aluminum moldings, full chassis work, some painting, and wood work. I have updated my equipment and I’m capable now to get wood done fairly quickly. While I’ll make pieces and ship them, I will also take in complete bodies and rewood them, returning them in a body finished state. Here are a few pictures of my recent wood work. A 30’ chevy from RI, a 32’ Olds roadster from Syracuse NY, and a 33’ olds 4dr sedan roof wood from TN. (The picture of the old wood on the red carpet is what I received from the 33’ Olds owner. The wood I made up and shipped to him fit perfectly by his description). The 30’ chevy got all new roof wood and new B pillars made. The 32’ Olds roadster wood is on my spare frame and abou 1/3 made up as I’m waiting on the body that should be here mid summer. I’ve also made up two more sets of 32’ olds lower body wood that shipped to Spokane Washington. The owner said the fit and finish was perfect to his cars body/chassis. This is the types of work I’ll be offering and all the above wood projects were done over the past 8 months. If you have a project and are looking for work that’s done in a timely manner, PM me. Thanks Ted.
