Ahahaha, we think so alike. I actually have had my eye on that ever since I wanted to get started. Just sitting there "Oh that place would be perfect" ~ but thats what I predicted... you would have from there to Orlando, there to Daytona, and there to Miami ON LOCK...
If I had soem STEADY income right now I would be seriously considering it. Although business is good right now, its no where NEAR where I would like it to be. Right now it just pays the bills and is going to allow for me to by spring time be setup with my swap and havent decided if im gonna just get a nice set of rims and bec-tech it up and keep it more or less a sleeper or go all out show w/ kit custom interior etc. etc.
As far as WHEN I will be ready, I just do not know. I mean, hell I still have many many years ahead of me only being 19 and all. And do I know in 2 years I will still be interested? Yes... and in two years do I know that Melbourne and surrounding area wont have any good shops? Yes... its all just timing. There are things like being able to swap, custom interiors etc. that I would like to learn more on first. Seeing as I havent done a swap yet, I would feel stupid having a customers car be the first one. And there is more to it then just bolting in the motor and sending someone on their merry way. I think I have be staying ahead of the curve for quite some time, and I will continue to by setting goals and reaching them. So it may not be this summer, or next winter, but I will make it down there to open up a shop. Even though there is probably MORE of a demand here, it snows (hahaha well USUALLY...) end of November through middle of March here ~ thats like 5 months out of the year, I cant possibly see making enough money the rest of the months to keep me happy ~ and to pay all the bills during the slow winter months. SOOoooOOoo... and of course you will be about THE only person I allow EVER to drive the car, but im sure you will be a little surprised as to what exactly it is
