Frame Off Restoration Gone Bad - Pretty Red Paint Hides Trashed And Rotted Parts Throughout

[@yodawunn6700]

Glad you named names. Too often the perp is never called out. It should be easier to get compensated for frauds like that. I'm a redneck through and through, but I cut no corners when working on other people's stuff, nor will I even if they ask.

[@UncleTonysGarage]

We've done videos like this before, but left out names because there was no clear and direct path back to the party who actually did the work. In this case, the owner of the truck had a direct one on one transaction with the people she contracted to do the work, and that's why we "named names".

[@yodawunn6700]

@@UncleTonysGarage Absolutely agree. There has to be a direct line to the people that did the work. Again, goes back to why I wont cut corners even if they want me to. Clearly this lady didn't ask or pay for that but I have seen botched up crap that the customer actually asked for because they themselves are the deceiver. Shops just shouldn't do it, if the deceptive seller gets caught, they'll throw the shop under the bus in a second.

I have done frame off for myself and when it comes to structure no compromises. Safety first. And I took my 65 Galaxie 2dr ht with a strong FE and C6 and 4.33 geared locker. Loud obnoxious and able to tear up the road. But my son and I had the car apart and hung the body from a tree with cribbing under it while we completely worked over the frame and suspension and replaced all of the bad parts, reconditioning the mounts and when body joined the frame we checked everything and got the body straight on the frame. It is so aerodynamic that you can roll down all 4 windows and get up to 100 mph with the 4.33s and still carry on a normal conversation without yelling. If we can do that in our backyard with a chain hoist to the front mounts and an engine hoist in the trunk . How the hell does anyone turn out an abortion like that? Are all TN shops crooked like that? I had a set of heads I worked and ported to perfection and I sent them to a guy I thought I could trust and when I asked when my heads would be ready, he said what heads? I saw them later in a magazine write up with the stamped ID marks I put on everything, I mentioned that detail because the person in TN was subject of the article. The pictures all came down and came back up with the stampings covered with photoshop. I’m not mentioning names but be careful when dealing with valuable parts engines and cars. I love mechanical things and I worked hard until I went blind insult to injury the friends I had for 25 years and had helped all I could banned me for life from that forum. They were all in on the joke but me. That was the greatest loss of all. If someone had said, I need your heads really bad to compete in a competition, I would have loaned them to them. But it was a dirty matter where I lost all but one friend. I used my position as a production manager and designer who was very familiar with the engine family and I called Vic Edelbrock and talked him into copying an engine designs heads and intakes. He did and they were his best selling products they made. Later I looked over a set of blueprints for a larger displacement version since strikers because the rage and made improvements from my own research that would make them be on par with any modern engine. Sent them back and requested that my name not be a part of it. He did tell a few people. But the heads were great especially on the strokers and the intakes based on the best factory designs and a fantastic iron block that is capable of handling anything that can be thrown at it. I’m not looking for praise, but I really miss my friends or who I thought were friends. My wife and I are soulmates and we practice mindfulness meditation and doing good for others. I will never give anyone bad advice knowingly and I strive to live life as it should be. Just be honest with yourself and others. I am blind now and a fall broke my left shoulder shattered is a better word. 50 years of hard work and I still dream about it. I love hard work . Dishonesty and disrespect, arrogance are sins that we can all fall prey to and I fear the the things that unify us , that were our net as we walked the tightrope is becoming less trustworthy as used to be. To rob that woman was beyond words to me.

She needs to sue the shit out of them. You write up an estimate for repairs and that is what she should sue for. Also everyone needs to spread the word in your area what that company does.

A lot of places focus on making it shiny and pretty without really paying attention to it working or being done properly. I’ve even met a few people who just think that’s the way it is with old cars. They think they’re supposed to have problems and not work.

[@Carstuff111]

Even if the vehicle was only going to be driven on the weekend, maybe once a month, that truck was dangerous. The way I see it, if these fools that charge so much are going to frame off restore a vehicle, there are NO excuses for doing what was done to this truck. Her very first drive, if she had filled that fuel tank, it could have puked gasoline all over the road and likely on to her just filling it. The bed looked like it was ready to fall apart or just straight up come off the back, which is a danger to anyone following behind her. And the fact these shops do this, makes me think they should have to put their own lives on the line with the vehicles that they built as their new daily drivers. Let them hurt or kill themselves with their own half-assed work. I have no remorse for scammers, especially when the safety of people is on the line. I have a shitbox 30 year old Honda Civic that I saved from going to scrap 9 years ago, I prioritize making sure it is safe if not for myself, then for those around me on the road at the very least. I have less than $4,000.00 total invested, and I have made sure the car stops and turns correctly and that nothing on it will make it a danger to those around. This lady had tens of thousands, I am sure, poured into the restoration of this truck, and I wouldn't let my worst enemies drive that death trap as it is/was. Trailer queen, or daily driver, if it is to move under its own power for any amount of time on the road or a track, or just on and off a trailer, there is a minimum amount of safety that needs to be thought of. And this poor truck had none of that. It makes me sick. And I would LOVE to have a nice long chat with the dirt bag pieces of crap that built that truck. If it was too far gone to be fixed correctly, they should have said something. Or, been more upfront with the budget to fully make the truck right.

The Feds would NOT screw it up!. Look at the FAA and aircraft maintenance. That works just fine! I've been an airplane mechanic for over 40 years, and stuff like this just DOESN'T happen. As a mechanic, you are DIRECTLY responsible for the work you do, and you put your name and mechanic number on all the work you do. If there is a problem, there is DEFINITE accountability right back to the person who did the work. These excuses about "Staffing problems" is just PURE B.S.! Any owner of an aircraft shop is EXPECTED to know the quality of work his guys are putting out, and has the responsibility to see that work is done properly. Bad aircraft mechanics are rooted out VERY QUIICKLY. As far as the FAA is concerned, the manager of a shop is JUST AS RESPONSIBLE AS THE MECHANIC, FOR POOR WORK. You HAVE TO know whether your guys are doing quality work or not, and hold them to a high standard.

I have since completed my welding, sheetmetal, and auto body / paint training at the local community college. I went back and removed all the short stranded filler, cut out the bad metal, fabricated new parts, and welded them in. A lot of work cutting, fitting, welding, removing warpage. So the fill jobs that I had done were worth it for a short term fix. But if you want it done right you gotta cut and weld.

Back in the day, I did a series of articles over 3 years in a national magazine on restoration taking it from the day you brought it home to the paint booth at the end, trying to direct people on how to choose a proper shop, because not everyone can do everything themselves, and getting things done at other shops can be frustrating at best, and a nightmare at worst. This truck shows that, and I'll bet the "restoration" shop took advantage of the fact that she's a woman...and won't know the difference.

One of the lessons to be learned here, do in person progress checks. If you show up every week you can see exactly what they're doing and it's harder to hide stuff like this. Even if you're not that mechanically savy, you'll see the fiberglass contrasting with bare metal before its covered in paint. You'd see the rotted bed rails before the wood floor is in place. Bring a more knowledgeable friend with you if needed. If you see something fishy, ask a friend, the internet, anyone but the shop. Then the shop can either fix it or you can take your project somewhere else before the bill gets any higher. Worst thing to do is drop off a project and wait for the "it's finished" phone call.

[@YouveBeenMiddled]

[@ludditeneaderthal]

You assume the average "more bucks than brains" customer would have a clue what they're looking at. Wander past any body shop you see bondo "skim coat" leveling. Every boat has "structural fiberglass" work. A good talker is going to convince your average pigeon "this is how its done". But, you also have to look at what the final purpose of the "restoration" is supposed to be. If this truck was supposed to be a "static indoor display" piece, it's pretty ok. If it's supposed to be "restored to factory fresh, roadworthy" condition, it's complete butchery. Betcha the butcher shop even uses puffery like "museum quality restoration" as lawsuit insulation.

In 1969 I took a '56 Ford wagon that had been in the family since '57 to a body shop with the instructions to "Replace all the rust with metal, complete the body work and prime it". When I got the car back and started to take a really good look at it, I found masking tape over the rust holes and body filler over the tape. Sad part is, I had stopped at the shop a few times and, because I didn't look for the right things, didn't catch the shoddy work. So, I started learning the skills needed to do the work myself. Started with welding and panel fabrication. Now, 5050+ years later (OK, 50+. Thanks @Zach-sg5uu! Edited 05-27-2024), I do everything but engine machine work and automatic transmission overhauls on my own cars and trucks. Shops that do work like shown here really piss me off.

Some shops don't really know what their mechanics are doing either. I experienced this recently. The owner was a great guy, but staffing was an issue. I showed the owner some of the work, he did give me a discount. The problem with jobs like restoration is that the people working on it have to wear too many hats. You can't take a mechanic and get him to do body work. A lot of people underestimate the time and money it takes, to do it to even a minimum standard

When he is talking about the cost to bring it up to par, and make it safe, my best guess would be that it would actually cost more than the original restoration. You literally would have to go through an undo everything that's been done to it before you can repair it properly. I could see a major lawsuit coming out of this if somebody was driving it and was seriously injured because in an accident, maybe even a minor accident, it would fail in places that it shouldn't. I would say that the shop that did the work should have to pay 100% of another restoration. But I don't know whether that would wake them up or just piss them off. A true crime.
