Almost as good as the smell of hot coffee! It's getting the metal prep'd that's the fun part.  :pullinghair:   ;)

Be careful. Don't get caught drinking the Kool-Aid or believing the hype.

Looks pretty good, do you do your own plating?
I've found having the ability to do my own is horribly convenient.

Question #2
Is that all customer stuff, or do you build your own inventory to sell ?

Boy Jimmy, you sure are a show off.  :perfect10:  There's a reason why you get all my work.

  when you do work that looks that good you have some room to show off!    they look great!

Great looking parts. That really makes the difference on a car.

Nicely done.  I wish I could smell some of that.  I have never had the pleasure.

Thank you for the kind comments.  :bigthumb:    Yours, too Mike!  :haha:

Mike and I like to throw fast balls at each other with the comments like this...
"So, how's that 1988 Yugo you're restoring coming along, Mike?

Sorry, I just have to amuse myself sometimes at the history of having unrelated, yet all Mopar parts, in one place at one time preserved in a picture and then out they go back to the owners all over God's creation.

No, I do not actively sell restored parts. I provide a service. What is shown in the first picture is a mixture of individual owners and restoration shop parts sent in. If the individuals or restoration shops want to mention JS Restorations, that is totally up to them. I am not a name dropper.

I will say those four clutch safety switches did come from the one restoration shop along with a bunch of other parts on the table. One of each version for current project cars and the other two for stock.

I enjoy the before and after pictures. Just offering my little sliver of help to the Mopar only community.

Very nice. Is that a secret formula you use to plate things?

Awesome work Slotts!  Wasn't sure if you were still providing the service . . . good to know!  A talent I don't have . . .

Drive it like you stole it . . . And they're CHASING you!

My bad. Sorry, I missed answering that question. No, I use a commercial plating service for clear, dichromate zinc plating and black oxide plating. Just don't have the time for doing my own plating.

I was thinking you must be drinking that stuff instead of coffee.
You may need more than coffee to get all that work done, and so pretty. :perfect10:
