Shortly after the pillar lift, air compressor and welder were put in place in that little shop the customers formed a line.  Advertising? Forget it.  The gossip spread like dust from a fan and now all of a sudden the project cars had no place to park.
-LaSalle , VolvoP1800 and pickups clogged the area in front of the garage.

Stefan had pulled the motor out of the Caddy, that just needed a tune up,  and spare parts and new tools were all over the place. No doubt that the demand for guys like this was huge.  The opening party  got cancelled due to putting on the overall  instead.

The Cadillac 429 showed to be a pricey chick to entertain.
-Huh, what crazy prices, said Chris. Not a Chevy . Not a Chevy at all.  That first renovation turned out to be an expensive  lesson for the Chevy guys to swallow.

Chris keeps track of the expensive’s and now when it’s not a hobby but a job for two persons to gain paychecks from the task it all but easy.

Nope, can’t do, said Stefan who had been fishing on the net.  We’re going to buy a car.
-Forget it, Chris said. Just forget it. We should sell something  first before any more buys.
– You have to move when time is right said Stefan. Are you coming or . . .

Chris bites the bullit as the hammer goes on.
-No I’m not going any where and  you neither. You’re putting that motor in the Cadillac. Period.
