This Week at FantomWorks is a short post that we have started to give a little insight on the ongoing projects that the shop is currently working on. Since many can’t make it to the shop for every weekly tour we decided to bring a little bit of the shop to everyone. Hope you enjoy…
Hope you enjoyed the brief update on just some of the numerous project currently in the shop. If you are ever in the Norfolk area on a Friday, come on down and see the work being done yourself during one of our weekly Tours.
We get some vehicles ready to ship to a car show in Puerto Rico. 
Rex’s vette is awaiting it’s ride home. 
KrisT is finishing up a 71 Camaro, while a 66 Coronet is awaiting assembly. 
Pop’s takes a power nap during lunch before continuing to build the 37 Stearman. 
Heath works on buffing the freshly painted 63 Corvette. 
Davey is wrapping up the stripping on the Route-66 63 Split Window. 
The Amphicar is awaiting some engine mounts and a radiator. 
So Andy gets a break from the Amphicar to help with getting the 37 Buick started. 
Jon has the 69 Cougar ready for its turn at getting finished up with the bodywork before painting. 
Jon works on the LS3 in a 72 Corvette 
While a couple of LS3 engines await their turn for his attention in installing… 
One here in a 74 Jaguar 
And here in what will eventually be a 50 Ford F100. 
And eventually one will find a new home here in another 63 Corvette. 
ChrisP gets the 70 Challenger 402 stroker to “run like a scalded dog” 
And finishes up the installing a new 12 bolt rear into the 67 Chevelle. 
Wayne gets to spend another week in the tranquility of the woodshop working on the 55 Cris Craft
The show was the best car program on velocity, bar none. Dan is a kick in the ass and I learned a lot of tings from him. As far as quality workmanship goes Fantom Works is second go none.
Thanks for the newsletter, and now back to Fantom Works reruns.
Dave

I miss FantomWorks !
Without question, I’ve got to make a trip to Norfolk !
Dan, it WAS all worth it….bar none the best show on Velocity/Motor Trend.The job you and your crew do is right up my alley. Buffing out worn paint and mechanicals to keep an old car running smooth, safe and looking great is what the average car guy enjoys. Not EVERY episode you had was a million dollar build/restoration or big tires on a brand new truck, [i find that a little boring]. Love the news letter and thanks for the episodes you did give us. GOD BLESS!
Happy to see your shop is busy and prosperous. Enjoy your show and it came to an end all too soon. I do understand the somewhat restrictive environment you had to work under. You did a splendid job with your narratives. The you for the Fantomworks Newsletter, it is nice to keep in touch with your shop’s many projects. You are one of a kind 👏👍😊.
