Just walked around and tried to take photos to show some of the work and details This is under the passengers feet area. Everything is new, and every weld has a very finished apperance. Passenger side under the wheel well Engine, radiator, tube work, etc Cool work to...

I dropped by again today to pick up some parts. The tear down has started, and with it up on the rack I got some better photos and saw details I missed before. There has to be many hours of work into making these axles so beefy. They look much better in person than in photos...

Rolled the blankets off, and got a few photos before it starts getting trailers parked on it.

I did mine with this and I wish it was better. It scrapes off easier than I had hoped for. And when you look at it close it kind of looks rough. But it is easy to paint over and touch up. I would go rattle can again, but would pick something different than this stuff.

Cement is down :D My job is to stand around and hold the shovel up again.

By they way.... My photos don't do the work justice. :-\ When you spend a few minutes looking at their work you start to see small details that don't stand out at first. My mind does not think enough steps ahead to pull off the kind of work they do.

I hope not :sick: I don't remember any of your photos, can you repost them? There is a second thread about the FJ build were yours in there by chance?

Word on the street is that Ben Hanks Racing is going to get real busy on this and get it down to Jack Kesler Customs to have this beast torn down and finished! The end is getting near!

I stopped by again today for a few mintues and only had a cell phone with me. Most of the projects in the shop have cycles through and there is a new batch being worked on. These guys stay busy. here is what I saw today. A JK in for some more or less bolt on suspension work...

I stopped by a few hours after those first photos were taken to see how the new suspension was comming along. Ben Hanks helped to put together this kit to make the rear suspension set up really easy Again another amazing truss made by Ben Hanks Racing By 7:00 PM Jack, and a few...

So today I learned that Jack's business is collision repair and some custom work. But just like you and me his hobby and his excitment of the day comes from working on his crawler. This thing is build to be used. And tonight (probalby as I type) he is cutting out the old booty fab...

This was cool.. a custom painted and flamed out lowered chair to roll around on. I want one of these :greg:

While Jack was still taking care of business I wandered to the backyard to see what was back there.... Jacks other crawler. It is obvious he is not too worried about a little scratch or dent. I like the willys wagons. This one needs some attention. A CJ that had some...

There was one more truck that I took photos of but Jack had to leave to attend to some phone calls. So I did not get all the details on this. Jack tell us more about it would ya? But the part I did get was that this truck came to them like this. It looks really good in photos, and...

The next room over is where all the dirty works happens and the sparks fly. There were 3 or 4 employees busy working on cars that were nice enough to let me stop them for some photos of the current work happening The big daddy frame rack to pull frames straight. I don't think I have ever...

Once you get past the office there is the room where they prep for paint and them move cars into the paint booth. I just missed one comming out, but these guys have lots of up and comming paint jobs. Here is just a few shots of the paint booth..

I ended up stopping by Jack Kesler Customs today and had my camera with me. So the field trip started there :) I had not met Jack or been to his store before today, but I am glad I took the time to stop by. I found out that he is next to Frank's Auto & Diesel in Midvale. I have driven...

The way I read it you can claim "vintage vehicle" without any questions. You may have to explain and/or do some fast talking to get it listed as a "Special interest vehicle" There is a chance with this cluase a motor vehicle of any age or make that has not been substantially altered or...

Yeah I am not sure how they read that. 2Bi was made in America prior to 1935; 2bii is registered as a vintage vehicle; or 2biii is a replica vehicle as defined under Section 41-6a-1507 So does that mean it has to be older than 1935 OR vintage/replica :confused:
