They're restoring about three Daytona's right now including one that was destroyed by fire and the only factory Mod-Top Daytona known to exist... :drooling:

Beautiful work and sweet rides but way above my pay scale... :)

I had Jeff paint the interior panels for that EB7 convertible I restored....when I was talking to him a few months ago, he had about 22 cars on the go, or roughly three life times of work....he's a perfectionist and the cars take YEARS to complete... :'( He works in that big shop with only one other guy.

It's a Vancouver car. A friend of mine remembers it when it was new.

Looks like they do nice work, but as Alan said, the anality of a guy sanding a K-member with 800 grit paper leaves me cold. Who's kidding whom? Does anyone REALLY think these cars look like they did when they came out of the factory originally? Perfect gaps and paint? The original rt trunk extension in my Challenger was a measured and photo'd 3/4" lower than the adjacent main floor- from the factory! And measuring dip lines?! As if the fat cat who pays for all this fluffery would ever see, much less care.  And, God forbid you ever drive one of these cars, you might get a stone chip in your $20,000 paint job! They're cars and should be treated like cars- you know, like take it out and drive it, maybe even hammer on it, like we all did when they were actually new.  :rolleyes:
In the immortal words of Jimmy Scott- "pace yourself!"
