This wasn't a parts counter employee, it's the owner of a top notch hot rod builder with many award winning vehicles

Good evening Illinois, Ken, Pat, Shaun, and John!

Great day here today, upper 70s. Late this afternoon we had an 8" rainfall. The drops were 8" apart then evaporated. LOL

“You're only as good as your untrained, youthful, employees”, said the laid off, old guy with experience, connections, common sense...

“Knowing that the shop would ultimately be too busy to handle alone, one employee at a time was brought aboard; but only those that met a strict qualification checklist. Justin once said “I would rather hire a kid that can learn, than a man that already knows everything. I can teach the kid, but I can’t un-teach the man.” It was with that method of hiring employees and his drive to create the business that has established Scott’s Hotrods into what it is today.”

That trucks value is worth more than you ever thought it was. Glad that you know, so you can get it insured correctly.
