Easy to work with, super quality and extremely knowledgeable. Knows the difference between a B and E body frame and brackets Had this 70 V-8 K frame modified with brackets and insulators. Really impressed with the work, did a minor repair to a tear, and ensured the LCA pin sleeve that had a broken tack weld was reinstalled and welded properly. If your doing a conversion, and have the K frame, I think this is a better option then the poly conversion brackets that have gotten pretty expensive.

With the talent he obviously has, he might just be the guy that could make some of the mounts that are now abandoned since Schumaker went out of business!

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
