OPEN HOUSE.... Ironworks Speed & Kustom

[ironworks]

On May 19th, from 10-2pm we are having an open house party. We will be showing off some of the current projects. We will be showing off the the new showroom/ office. We should also have one pretty exciting project to show off on that day, Maybe.......

We are located off the 99 fwy in bakersfield, california. About 1.5 hours from LA and 1.5 hours from Fresno

It should be a good time, we should even have T shirts and hats for sale, believe that or not.

I think I'll try and make that.

[ironworks]

Rodger

[novanutcase]

Me too!!!:P

[Budnik Wheels]

Hey Rodger,
Are you going to have that "front wheel drive" truck there? :lol:

Jason & Jay

[ironworks]

We decided to actually make it all wheel drive since the front was already done and all we have to do in the rear is install half shafts and it would be rear wheel drive also, man Why did we not think of that sooner.

You guys should come up, or donate a set of wheels as a door prize.

[novanutcase]

Donate a set of wheels? GREAT idea!!! LOL!!

Rodger

[JohnnyR]

Will there be food? BBQ?

-j

[ironworks]

That is the plan... not steak and lobster, hot dogs and some sodas, we usually have a pretty large turn out. So you better come about early for food.

[HWY Nova]

Rodger,

That's one way to force yourself to finish your office...... SET AN OPEN-HOUSE DATE!

My wife (Diane) and I will try to make it! I can't wait to see John's Nova again.

[ironworks]

We are trying for a little public surprise with the Nova.


There John, I said it publicly so we are trying buddy. But I'm not saying what we are trying for yet, you will have to wait and see.

Rodger

[Sales@Dutchboys]

We are going to need pics!!!:thumbsup:

[ironworks]

Your one to say, that you need pics. I hear people beggin to see your car so much I'm beginning to think you may not even have one. Or it is riddler contender? We might be able to work some trading on pics of you "SUPPOSED" for some top secret pics of Johns. But we have to get the work done to be able to show you what we have in our hand.

Thanks Alot!:mad: Now I won't be able to sleep until the 19th wondering what you're going to do!!:lol: I'm sure it will be TOTALLY cool!!!!:thumbsup:

Admin:

Is there any way we can set up a pic bartering system? Like I post up a pic. Then Paul has to post one if he wants to see mine?:unibrow: :D

John

[HWY Nova]

Like a 66 Nova with rims & tires..... on the ground?

[ironworks]

There we go i thought he was the selfish pic boy. Even better would be to let everyone else see except him. That would be the best. So everyone could talk about it and he would not be able to see.

Rodger

[ironworks]

Now that would be no fun now would it. John has other plans, and they include stonewash bluejeans material.

Sorry John I let the cat out of the bag, HUH?


:D

[Sales@Dutchboys]

lol

Deal....

It's been a rough couple months. Haven't gotten much done at home on the car. We got our first new aircraft a couple weeks ago and started to do our training flights - and on the very first attempt the mechanics pushed it outta the hangar and right into the wing dock and smashed up a wing and aileron.... That put us 2 more weeks behind schedule. FAA is here this week doing their inspections, we do an evac drill this week (and get to blow all the door slides and watch people bound off the concrete) and then proving runs for the next 2 weeks. Then I finally get a break....

Speaking of breaks - sounds like you need to take some time off dude ! New facility, new show room and office, open house, several projects in work, a magazine deal and the debut of the Truck, whew !!!! (and how's that girl friend fitting into all this ??) Pretty soon you'll be needing your own administrative assistant and corporate jet !

Wish I could stop by for the open house. Sounds like a lot of fun and I wish you well !!

Oh yeah don't forget I started my off road racing career and and I started racing on road in my mazda. Plus I finally got my mustang all dialed to start teasing things out out the track. That thing is gonna get me arrested. At least the offroad and on road is only in 1/10 scale. But the shop is looking good, We have some cool projects in the works. We should be starting on the Overkill Chevelle really soon and another bad ass chevelle for a guy from albuquerque. We are also working on starting some frame manufacturing, oh did I say that publicly. My over worked schedule has really given me some great ideas lately, You will have to see Johns car on saturday, it will be looking good.

Well slow down at work, the car is more important. Oh by the way, in my busy schedule, something has suffered, MY LAWN. But Hay I'm never home during the day so who cares right. My neighbors already dislike me for all my loud cars anyways so who cares, Right?

Rodger

[Budnik Wheels]

You should we have quite bit goin on. And bring that set of 18x13 with 8" of BS for the prize give away. The 18x13 with gray centers.

Rodger

care package en route...

[ironworks]

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that showed up we had a great time. We had the usual John fan club in the house, and he was rockstar late this time.

There are some pics floating around of the nova on the ground with alot of the under hood stuff. Along with pics of the cars. I do not have photoshop on this new computer so I cannot resize.

Thanks again

Rodger

[ironworks]

well here is my email, [email protected]

show me yours and I will show you mine.

Rodger

there you go pictureboy

[ironworks]

That would be Johns department, not mine I may post some on the Net but he runs his own updates, maybe he is taking lessons from you on the pics. I know he posted some more updates on the steves nova site. I will be updating my website later today, so there will be few. I can email you some in trade only. Plus I do not have any resizing program on this new computer to post them on here.



Rodger

[novanutcase]

Pictureboy?

I was just throwing it out their....

Im sure everyone would like to see some pics.

Don't worry man! He barks alot but he doesn't bite! PM me your e-mail and I'll send you a lil' video I did! I tried to post it on YouTube but they won't let me so I will try and post it on streetfire.net or whoever will host it.

Hmmmmm.......maybe Scott would be willing?

John

[Garage Dog 65]

Hey !

Glad to hear the open house was a success !

Who won the Budnik wheels ??

When can we see the Cad pics ? And the painted Truck ?? You'll probably hold me hostage on the Truck pics until I finish my chassis ......

Resize pic in Photoshop and save for web format:

Open file
Select Image on tool bar - and select Image Size from drop down list.
Change the Pixel Dimensions width box to 1024 or less (if needed)
Select File on tool bar - and select Save for Web.
Right corner press Save button - opens a dialog box - pick the location to save and OK.

[ironworks]

I know how, i just don't have the software. But I will not claim to know what I'm doing beyond that.

I'm not trying to be a jackass, I would like to see pics of this mysterious nova. I have never seen a thing, That is why I call you pictureboy, instead of chevyboy. Your always asking for pics and never showing yours.

I should have some freshy one up on my site soon, I'm hunting for camaro and 55 chevy gasser parts right now.

[Payton King]

and what more can I say about the car! The song was perfect!

[RECOVERY ROOM]

That is bad a$$, good tune with good timing on the video.

[Mick Mc]

I guess i might need to bring my lawn mower to Bakersfield, every weekend.
That might be 'underkill', the lesser of the two 67's.

[ironworks]

Well your about 3 days late. I just hired a gardner on monday night. But I'm thinking about a housekeeper.

I'm getting a big, and expensive parts pile for the Chevelle project going. So construction will begin soon. Are you coming this way next week? There was 67 Roller in the paper this week for 2000. It said solid rust free shell.

Rodger

[Tony@AirRideTech]

Rodger,

I hear that the open house was a success and most of the people that went by said that you build one heck of a rat rod! I also heard that the go kart chassis with the briggs is just bad ass .......:lol:

[ironworks]

It was a success except for the heart broke kids who had come hoping for an air ride t shirt to keep them warm at night since they have no place to live. But they had no luck, there were no air ride t shirts for the them, Just Budnik t's and banners which they were happy to recieve. The kids all went home crying, but other than that it was great......
