I go like the look of this blower. It sits forward on the engine like the top fuel blower. Looks fancy.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
The one thing you can always count on with a body shop and that is here today gone tomorrow.... the fact he didn't follow through with his commitment to finish your truck speaks volumes for what is probably going on in his family life... My Dad alway taught me that a man is only as good as his word and it is apparent this guy's word isn't worth squat...

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Little setback Mike. With the exposure this ride will get, I'd imagine there's a whipper-snapper out there that'd love to be "the guy". Suppose the problem would be finding someone you can trust, can get it done in time and is in the budget! Will be watching.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
I don't agree w/the comment about Gary not being a man of his word. Domestic issues are not always controlled the way you want. I had to move out @ moments notice. My x-Gf wasn't bad but she sure didn't expedite the financial side of things which worked well for her but put me in limbo since I had a 240k mortgage hanging around my neck (a 2+ year limbo unless I wanted to jack w/her daughters college education). Maybe Gary is working to meet family obligations which trump somebody's project.
I say just do like the rest of the guys on this board. Move on to another place. Most shops charge a similar rate so that should be a wash..... Lots of us have lived through it.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
My body guy is also one of my best friends, I told him I would do whatever on my end so he could try to save his marriage. I understand completely if it was try to save my marriage or finish my buddies truck I would try to save my marriage also. I just wish she could have waited one more month before she flipped out ! LOL

Body guys you can find, best friends don't come along very often. I'm sure every thing with the truck will work out fine.

Good luck getting another body man or shop to wrap it up. Sucks to hear about Gary though but totally understandable with the circumstances. Hope things work out for him too.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Hang in there Mike. I hope that Gary can get it straightened out with his marriage. Like you said, it comes first.
I know its only been a couple of days, but you got any promising leads yet?

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
way to throw a little humour at a bad situation. You will make it, if for no other reason than you deserve to. This build hasn't really had any drama up until this point, mostly been a feel good movie, now we're all on the edge of our seats. lol
hopefully your sons football game took your mind off it for a little while. |
