[QUOTE]last time i saw that place it was a hole in the wall, why dont they sponsor the board?[QUOTE]
I guess they don't need or can't handle the volume of work they could potentialy get from the added advertisement etc... If they are indeed growing they amy get to a point when they might invest in a little advertising. That is just a guess, but one of the few legitimate reasons some shops may not advertise. I mean I guess I could become a sponsor and start doing a lot of installs, but I have enough business to stay fairly busy without affecting my own projects and family life too much. That might change if I was to advertise or something along that line. Just an example of what I am talking about not being able to keep up with demand.

I think A.R.D. has an old Vette that was suppose to be ok. Although I do recall they did call out Big Rick and his Bird on HTown board with that Vette.

ARD and Owen are a great shop. They do quality work and stand behind it. I had them rebuild my 4L60E and they did an excellent job. No, they're not a sponsor on here, but Owen is considering becoming one.

Is "Camden" the person? It didn't move for a year because it was "down" do you think?
And someone else said it is only a weekend driven car? It wasn't even within the gates?? Is he not worried about it being stolen/vandalized?
Does he take care of it? Does he love it like I did?? I miss her

Does Ed work at Carmax and bought it right after I sold it? Looks like he might have hit/ran over/rubbed against something behind the drivers door, actually on the ground affect and then on the wheel well.
