All that wonderful work just to put a piece of junk small block Chevy in it. I don't understand why people go to all that trouble and then go buy an engine from Big Lots.

No slight taken at all. I always like to see nice work. We don't use Yoder Hammers. They are extremely difficult to control. We found the only way we could make the panels truly flow from one to another was to have them made on a stretch form or to do it by hand.

What is a bit sad, in both the case of the Kirkham and that Weesner hotrod, is that 99% of the people that seeing it go down the road have absolutely no idea its hand fabricated, or how much effort went into making it.

Several years ago we used to own a Yoder Hammer but sold it. The machine was EXTREMLY loud. Bruce Kimmons uses a Yoder hammer.
