Tom's is a nice small little shop right off 35 and Sante Fe. Rod did the weld for me and let me stay in the shop to watch the whole time. $40 for a full weld. I just had it done a few weeks back but it has held up great so far.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully if Im not working this weekend I will give them a try.

Anyone know of someone selling some 18X9.5 vette rims, or any 18X9.5 rims that will fit an SS for that matter? Im a little farther west, in Ft. Riley but I don't mind making the trip to KC to get some rims I need.

Probably going to end up ordering some rims, but figured id atleast give it a shot.

[midwest mcnasty]

Ok KC area members, how many of you are planning on going to the Midwest Camaro Fest on the 25th? I will be there.

[73vette]

I'll be there. Entered my car as a daily driver.

73vette, I was considering tackling my calipers this weekend since the weather has cooled down. I would be happy to pay you for what's left if you don't need the rest. Is it red? Can't tell from the pics if it's red or orange. I'm in KCMO/Gardner.

[73vette]

Yeah, looks a little orange in the phone pics, but RED in real life for sure! Let me know when you want it! I'll probably be in the garage all weekend painting my interior trim! 580-491-9131 if you want to call or shoot me a text.
