I’m in the cities tonight for work and headed over to Titus’ place to pick up a set of 17� wires and an “A� spring for my sedan.

Here are a few pics I took.

First up is a few pics of some ‘32’s. The red oxide one is his driver and the other is a true “survivor�. I don’t have all the details on it but Mad Fabricators is coming over this weekend to film him and it for Mad Fabricators III so the hole story will be known soon enough.

Here are a few more. One of Titus' daily driver pickup, (the only car he has besides the 32 that runs), a roadster he has slowly been collecting parts for and two shots of all the STUFF on the shelves.

The main reason I posted Titus’ shop is that so my wife can see that while I have a passion for hot rods (she says obsession) it really could be worse. :lol:  :roll:

The story on the survivor is neat, the guy owned it since high school and is getting it running for his ( I think ) 50th class reunion.

Hey Tim you need some 17" wires?? I think I might have some.

Isn't Titus the one who drops axles with a torch and a jack??
