    I'm at work, listening to a medium roar of parts salesmen "bsing" with shops.

    I'm listening to the sound of a happy baby shoveling popcorn into her mouth and making a mess. Business as usual.

    This lingers in the background...

    From professional salesmen? :screwy: Aren't they trying to appeal to every possible customer? Including the ones who don't like that stuff? :dunno:

    Haha, I believe it. We used to live at a body shop, we got all kinds of interesting stuff from shop owner and customer alike. :haha:

    I've worked for a number of heavy industries. Still don't like cussing.

    Yes, we rented a house that sat about 15' away from a body shop (same owner for both). Autos and auto parts spilled all over the lot, so no matter what window we looked out we always saw metal stuff. Only a small percentage of it was mine, even counting my trucks.

    Would have driven some folks crazy, but I don't mind shop stuff. I even did borrow the shop floor a very small number of times. The only thing that bothered me was the occasional V8 revved up high in the wee hours of the morning. :rolleyes:

    Most of his business was split between insurance cases and late-model rust repair (no surprise in this area). Never would have believed that a $60k truck would be rusting through after 3 years of Michigan salt, but I have now seen enough such cases to have a new perspective on salt cancer. :doah: Pretty sure I'm gonna start importing clean vehicles from the non-rusty regions, this region just doesn't have much clean iron left.


    But he also went through a few classic restorations while we were there, those were fun. And one Tronco conversion. I do have some pictures hanging around somewhere...
