Want to open new Flathead Business in TX

[curleeman]

I've been talking to a number of members about the lack of any type of flathead rebuilding/tuning/speed shops in the great state of Texas..What's the deal here in Texas? I am a native texan and am very disappointed in my home state I've decided to start thinking about opening up my own flathead speed/rebuild/tuning shop here in the DFW area, heck there's no competition to speak of!! All it will take is dedication,learning the flathead inside & out,good set of tools and a partner that loves the old motors as much as I do...I would like to start it ROOTS style,small & simple,almost like a hobby and see where it goes. I know there are a lot of flathead owners within hundreds of miles of the DFW metroplex that need help with their beloved flathead,it seems like everyone has to ship their motor off to California or somewhere thousands of miles away for decent service and pay ungodly amounts in shipping and other costs,that needs to change... If anyone out there in the DFW metroplex that feels the same as I do & might like to take a chance on starting something that doesn't even exist here, give me a shout and we'll see what we can come up with...This is America,the land of opportunity so lets strike while the iron is hot...Let me know,you never know what might happen..
