  • I got a custom car job!

    Starting a new job on Monday. Going to work for Ironworks Speed and Kustom. They are coming out with a line of parts for the home builder and it will be my job to take orders and ship parts as well as do some engine assembly for the pro touring eye candy that rolls out of that place. Also, hoping to learn how to do some real fabrication work. I seem to have been bitten by the fabricating bug putting my Ranchero together. Sure will be nice to have access to some experience and a shop full of tools. Wish me luck and check out the link to Ironworks' website.

        Very cool - a job's not really a job if you like doing it.

            You are 100% correct. Nothing beats waking up in the morning looking forward to going to work.

                      As my youngest son said in HS - "Cool Beans"! (Am I showing my age as I try to be hip?)

                      Anyhow, look like a great place and it WILL be a great thing for you.

                          Good for you. Enjoy every day and I hope it doesn't feel like a job. ;D ;D ;D
                          Solutions are often obvious once you get the questions right.

                              no really... he got the job just at the right time ;) , I want to start fabbing the intake and headers for the turbo'd 455 and no one makes stainless intake and exhaust flanges - thus someone is going to get the business.... why not give him a bit of business to take with him on his 1st day of work?
