I know they are not PT cars but it isnt that often you have 4 of these in the shop all at once, and 2 are HEMI cars and the green one is a 4 speed as well

It always amazes me how this kinda work goes in phases. I had 4 55 buicks in my shop at one time. Another time I had 5 55-59 chevy trucks, 3 model a's, 5 35-40 fords, (they all have the same frame). And another time 4 1st gen novas. We also had a early 50's caddy time. The way it goes is that 4 people that do not know each other come through the door with the same cars wanting similar work.

I had another guy come in here once that said he had a 31 chevy and that they were pretty rare. He wanted us to replace the wood structure with steel and align the doors and get everything right. He asked if I had ever seen one before. I said yes we had one come in laast week from arizona and I pointed out the window into the shop. He was in disbelief. It was rather funny.

I'm not raining on anybodys parade, I just think it is funny that he has 4 of the almost same kind of high end rare carin his shop at once. I'm not looking down on anyone, those guys build some cool cars and did you see that show room. You could use it as a weekend skating rink. I cannot even park a go-kart in my show room.

seriously who would brag on a 31 chevy or 55 buick.

Sorry, didn't mean it that way. I was commenting on the guy who came to you with (what he thought) was a rare car - and you had one in the shop at that time - meaning it maybe wasn't really that rare after all and that burst his bubble.

I was being an a$$.

The west coast gang comes in on thursday night. I'm looking forward to a nice weekend and going to a show that has 8000 cars I have never seen before. I think I have seen every car with in 200 miles of Bakersfield. So I have all new junk to look at and pick apart. You can only pick apart the same cars so many times, I'm hoping to revive my eagerness for car shows again.

If someone knows of a bar/pub in the area maybe we should grab some tables, beers and BS late Friday night somewhere ? Any ideas ??

I hope the weather gets better guys - it's been a hot and humid mess here lately. Very few trees on that big black paved Expo parking lot ....
