OFFICIALLY MOVING BACK
 
Well my wife got the job offer she has been wanting! Will be moving back the first week in February.

I still plan on detailing when I arrive after we get settled in. Hope to meet some of the newer guys!

Ha-ha!! Been toying with getting another one but it would have to be boosted.

Dawg, He is coming to CT. We should have a West Granby F-Body detailing day. I'm not sure how long it takes per car or truck, but we should be able to provide enough work for a day or two.

I have a guest bedroom.......he can stay over and start early again the next day. lol.

That honestly isn't a problem. It really comes down to the customers budget, expectations and overall vehicle condition. Some cars take 5-6hrs. Others take 15+. I usually don't give quotes until I see the vehicle and discuss options in person. That way everyone is happy.

Cool.....we'll work out all the details when the time is right!

The truck, Cadillac, and 68 are looking forward to a little TLC.

Dawg......let me know if you are in.

DAWG 01-14-2016 02:48 AM

sure thing David.

DavidS 01-14-2016 02:57 AM

Sound good Dawg....

Your car can be first.

The Silverado looks like crap and probably needs the most work.

edit: Actually the truck and trailer are looking a little worse for wear. The guy I bought them, Rich L, was really nuts about keeping everything nice and clean and I feel like I've been abusing them both.

He wrote an article about the trailer here and it has pics of the truck and trailer: http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/cor...-car-trailers/

DemonWithin99 01-14-2016 06:11 AM

NICE!!!! wondered why the GTO was going. lol

smokinss 01-14-2016 10:56 AM

The GTO is coming along!!!!

Thanks David! That's easily 2-3 days of work. No problem with that! Looking forward to getting together with everyone!

Badger87TA 01-25-2016 12:11 AM

Where are you moving back TO? Looking forward to seeing you again

Whats up man!!!! Going to be living with my brother/sister in-law in Rochester for a short time. We have a house we are going to look at hopefully when we get there in Freetown.

DAWG 01-30-2016 01:20 PM

So SmokinSS you got a detail trailer and travel around?

frankzlt1 01-30-2016 08:03 PM

Lol he should

DAWG 01-31-2016 11:42 PM

I ask only because I have seen a few around last couple of years.
Even seen one that polishes wheels and does wheel repair.
Seems to be a lucrative business going to peoples houses and detail there.
Ive seen em at dealerships too?

smokinss 02-01-2016 12:06 AM

No trailer but I can do mobile when needed. For more in depth correction work its better to have the customer drop off to me. Either way I am pretty flexible.

ls6monte 02-06-2016 09:47 PM

Shit!!!! He's back. Lol :(

SmokinSS.....sorry for the delay, but I've had a contractor that is a slow as heck redoing the guest room bathroom. He's been working on it since December and works about 2 to 3 hours a and works 4 or 5 days per week. It's taking him a very long time, but he does nice work.

As soon as he's done, I'd like to have you over.

I'm not sure if Dawg will join in, but at a minimum I have 3 vehicles for you. The Silverado, the CTS, and the 68.

Hey Dave!! I totally understand! Just keep me posted on when you are ready to have me over. I will most likely need a little notice due to current jobs already being booked out and also to give my wife a heads up! I was possibly thinking memorial day weekend as my wife is already off on the Monday for the holiday. I could come down Friday and that gives me more than adequate time to get things done.

If it ends up being later on its not a big deal either. I am pretty flexible.

OK. Let's plan on Memorial Day weekend. I checked with my wife, and if you come down on Friday that would work out great!

I don't know if you have kids, but your wife and kids are more than welcome too.
