New project we have gotten in the shop is this 30 Chevy coupe for a complete original restoration. It has been previously partially disassembled with some new wood. So before we start with disassembly we must first put it back together to confirm where everything goes and make sure we have everything. This will be a challenging project but with patience and attention to the details will become another amazing build!!
