He said his crew-cab is shoved over to a corner of the shop w/an inch of dust on it waiting. To paraphrase.... If it's not making money it's not a priority on his to-do list in life. He looked good & seemed healthy despite the fact we're not getting any younger.
Thanks for the update. Although, I am sorry to hear that. He's always been somebody who works hard, and it had to be awful watching things drop off for his business. Many people myself included were significantly affected, but I'm betting his revenue stream probably just about shut off overnight. Not much use for vending machines when everyone is at home. I hope that he's able to recover or redirect to regain his livelihood and and go back to enjoying trucks as a hobby. Truth be told though, he's a master of refurbishing and it's great that he can use that to turn a profit. But from what I've seen, he is so thorough, that he's probably not making a lot on an hourly basis on his flips. Glad to hear he's looking well and holding up though considering everything.
