Title: Got another job....
Post by: HDriderTH on November 30, 2010, 04:23:50 PM
Anybody here seen Pawn Stars or American Restoraion on TV? Anyway, Rick of Ricks Restoraions does all the restoration work on the stuff they buy at the pawn shop on the show, gas pumps, coke machines..... Thats where I work now. I'm starting at the bottom (sandblasting) and it royaly suxx. Hope I dont quit before I move up  :-\ Says he gets a lot of calls for harley engines and stuff but nobody to do it. I told him I do. I asked what kind of response they got off the ad and they told me they pulled the ad after 250 applicants.

We got a big ass vacume cleaner they used to vacume trains out with. It was taken out of service in 1941. It has a big cast iron blower on it. This dude tried to take it apart and broke one of the big iron gears in half. Now we have a 1955 Matchles motorcycle and he wants to "semi polish" the VIRGIN engine and trans cases    :banghead: :screwy:

Ok so this guy wants me to come in in the morning and get a '57 chevy runnin. It's just been painted and is all stock. The motor is sitting in it and the wiring will need some love (like three wires to run). It has an automatic so I'll have to make some tranny cooler lines. They asked if I had any supercharger Exp. on the phone, had a couple blown small block street rod motors in there.
