Lamborghini Rebody Engine Transplant
« on: May 22, 2020, 05:26:11 pm »
There is a man who has bought a Lamborghini Rebody that's being shipped from California.  It has a 2.8 in it at the moment but I think he said he has a crate Z06 engine he wants installed in it, plus an upgrade on a manual transmission.  He's looking for someone to do the transplant.  Does anyone know of anyone in the Georgia area that might be willing to do the job? 

He previously had a rebody that was at Whodeanies, but it went bye-bye.  I think it was an AD355 or another Ferrari model.  I remember seeing it at the Canton location.  Dark Gray primer. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

 There have been 2 posts lately looking for someone to build a Fiero for them. Sounds like a business opportunity or at least some extra money in the pocket. Some of the younger guys around that have been furloughed or laid off lately should look around for a place to do some work........

I'm trying to hire some help. Problem is, very few people can do the things I do here: Fiberglass work, custom paint, welding/fabrication, engine swaps, mechanical repairs/upgrades, etc..
Plus I don't usually work normal hours. Most of the time in the summer I work nights to avoid the heat. But if I could find good help I could adjust my hours to their schedule.
I have two guys that have been waiting for me to get caught up to do work on their car for over a year (don't know if they still need it). Plus two guys that want Meras painted as soon as I'm available.
Current work includes the full custom/engine swap Fiero, Mera paintjob, & a tube frame/fiberglass bodied/motorcycle (Hyabusi?) engined Fiat 850 Spyder.
Meanwhile my brand new tube frame for Annie (the yellow baja) has been sitting out in the weather rusting for two years.  :'(
