Sweden and the Netherlands!

One motor leaving here today for Sweden...this one when I got it had experienced a carb fire and was not in real good shape, needless to say...it's looking much better now  ;o)

Here's the inside of the housing when I opened it up on arrival....

And this one is headed for the Netherlands today for a 69 Charger that's in need over there

Shipping overseas is NO problem for us, we LOVE sending motors across the world!

The Netherland wiper motor went to  Autoschade Harteveld BV   Check them out if you're in the area

Check out Boog Mopar

Hey everyone.  Check out my European contact for wiper motors and other Mopar restored parts.  Andrea and I have been doing business a couple years now and he's the greatest to talk to on the phone, in person.

1970 Chrysler Starter Resto

These are the after photos of the 1970 Chrysler starter resto finished up this morning in the OC shop.  See, it's not just about wiper motors anymore  ;o)

General Industries Wiper Motor Restored

Every now and then we work "deals" with people we've worked with before, and some new, where we trade labor on a motor or two for a certain number of fully usable good condition cores....hey it's a win win situation that way right?

These are photos of Bob's restored variable speed General Industries wiper motor, one of the motors on the deal above described.  This particular motor is going on an early build 68 B Body application, Charger I believe.

 

Wait til you see the AC lines we're currently working on and are almost completed for another Charger...they are sweeeeeeeeeet.  Some new products, and thus my earlier hint of surprises to come!

Hamtrack Website - Bookmark It, There's Invaluable Info Here

Done, Done, Done

Dropped the plating off yesterday about noon, picked it up less than 24 hours later!!  It's done, done, done and man do I LOVE having a larger selection of date codes again.  

I've worked with reduced inventory since my arrival in FL because of circumstances beyond my control (how do you control someone else's poor behavior?)  and now the shelves are restocked.  Another plating run goes in two weeks, because I'm adding to this inventory!

Added Some Photos to Facebook CHECK IT OUT

Plating is Done and Ready to Drop Off

This BS of having to drive 55 miles each way to work the OC shop is a PITA, (and EXPENSIVE with gas going from 2.89 to 3.49 since I arrived in FL) but hey, work is work and you figure it's the "cost of doing business" with the constraints immediately put on me where the new property and shop are concerned.  

Things take a little longer on the prep end of things but the plating is prepped, cylinders are ground and everything is ready to drop off on Monday, and hopefully pick up on Thursday.  If you have a Special Order motor with me,  yours will be the first to get built and shipped, after that it'll be sort, date code and put on the shelves.

 

Before Prep, core components in the OC blast shop

 Core components moved to the inside of the big shop in OC

 

Cylinders moved to the attic of the OC shop

Since all cores now go to the OC shop, there's no prep even being done from the Orlando shop, thus the delay in prepping plating...but that's the piles we had to work through  LOL  

73 were prepped for plating on this run.  It's quite the process from start to finish, with the grinding that most cores require on the cylinder to remove pits, etc.   There's another blog where I get more indepth on the process if you're looking for the info   ;o)
