Re: Project OverKill

Wow, thanks for the props guy!!!

Yeah meathead, those SWB frames are like Big Foot around here. Everyone talks about them, but very few have seen one. And if you do find one, the owner will say he "plans on fixing it up someday", or he knows what he has and wants a mint for it. Then factoring in the time and $$$ it takes to travel to get one, we are better off out here just to cut em.

As far as resale value, I don't think Alex is too concerned about that. I know I'm not with mine. Its been debated here before, but my personal opinion is that if its done right (and shows), it shouldn't matter. UNLESS it is a factory-type resto, then it might. But for the type of builds guys like Alex and I are doing out here, I don't think it will matter. But I will never know, since my son would beat me if I ever decided to sell the Atomic Orange!

But its all good here!

Alex, its looking killer bud! Hopefully you will have the block back in the GatorHyde shop when I swing by on Saturday.
