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.
This week we start off with a full house in TrimWorks 
Fessler works on merging the electronics of a LS3 with a British electrical system. 
While Josh awaits the 32 Ford’s new top 
He begins to rewire the aged dash electronics in the silver 65 Corvette. 
Andy continues to get the 53 five Window pickup ready for paint 
Davey works on prepping the body panels and other metal parts from the 50 4100 Farm Truck 
Wayne begins to prep the 29 Harley-Davidson side car ready for it’s paint job. 
ChrisP deals with a troubling compression issue in the 73 Montego 
As well as the unruly alignment on a 65 Mustang 
While learning about peskily British transmissions in the 63 Austin Healey 
Jon continues to jump between the 63 Corvette 
and the 69 Camaro Transmission swap
Whatever happened to that airplane that was on the show but never showed it worked on
It is still here and mostly completed, just waiting on a few things and then certifications and inspections.
The 73 Montego looks great. I had a 73 Gran Torino with the same color and a brown vinyl roof. Should have never sold it. What engine does the Montego have? My Gran Torino has the 351 Cleveland.
I’ve watched all your episodes and have always wondered what your building was used for originally??
It was originally a laundry facility in the 1920’s, provided laundry services to almost every hotel on the east coast.
Now that Fantom Works has worked on cars, trucks, planes and boats, have you ever worked on railway equipment?
We have not done anything major but have repaired some small vintage items.
Awesome post! Keep up the great work! 🙂
I don’t believe I have ever seen a 1970 Pontiac GTO being done on the show. I also see very few mentions of the same car, is or was the 1970 GTO a non-collector? I own one and have had problems with it during restoration, but not anything unusual.
I have a few camaros 2 1973’s and a 70 ss. I have not seen any of the shows working on these years. My first car I built was a 72 rs. I love to watch restorations of these cars. I have seen 1 in the shop but never summarized in the show. Is it because the cost of restoration exceeds the value of the car?
