There's a reason Rod Emory is not poor lol


Rod doesn't work on the rust buckets. His customers cars are already worth at least 60k before he starts his work on them.

You should stop by his shop and see the rust buckets he has waiting to get done. He has saved some cars that I wouldn't have even considered cars in the condition they are in.

Yes, I have been to Rod’s shop.

I’m sure this is a west coast vs east coast situation when we’re talking rust. California is spoiled with their lack of rust.

Is that a B car?

We should have a chassis for this car in 2 years. Hold off on the restoration till then and it will be significantly cheaper for the customer.

That longhood seems pretty solid
