View Full Version : We are opening the shop

Glenn and I have already acquired suppliers for some parts and are in process of getting more. We are already taking some customers and are about ready for more. We will obviously specialize in 7m's, but will work on just about any car, (even Brandon's Mustang:icon_razz). We also want to get some test fit cars in here so we can make stainless lines for a wide variety of cars. If you have a car that you would like lines made for, let us know and you will only pay for parts if we don't already have lines for the car. We can also have custom lines made for about anything, so if you can't find stainless lines for something, let us know. The shop is called Underground Tech Lab. We do labor and hopefully welding soon. If you need work done, please contact us. We know the other shops in this area are bad, we hear nothing but bad stuff about them. We are all about customer service and building relationships with our customers. We hope to get everything going full scale pretty soon so we can fill any performance need. If you need anything, contact me (Dustin) or Glenn (soundslikesemi87) and we'll get back to you quickly. Thanks

We're not far away, you are! :icon_razz

Right now it's in my garage, but if things get going good enough, I'll get a real shop with a dyno and some lifts. If needed, we do have access to lifts at two different places so we can meet more needs that way. We also might have a turbo supplier in the very near future.

That should be fine, I need to drive it somewhere to take pics for the website before I take it apart.

Amen. I have some ideas on where we can go. Hopefully mine will be in that shot after this weekend or so.
Hopefully we should have the site up and running soon, depending on what Force thinks of the way it looks and the content.

The guy is being a little difficult to contact. I'll keep trying.
My neighbor across the street is buying a '72 bonneville and wants us to install an all new drivetrain including a 572! The motor alone is $14,000! It'll have 800 hp right out of the box!

Did you use Google to figure that out? j/k. Just text me so we can arrange a time. I have a 4 day weekend starting Thursday so let me know.

Hehe....well, I initially was gonna say 4 but had to make sure. :icon_razz
Roger that. We're celebrating my daughter's bday this weekend and still have family in town, but I'll definitely hit you up afterwards.

Yay, 4 day weekend! Maybe I'll push my car to the shop so my mom will stop yelling at me for it being in her driveway, and I can't keep it at my apartment lol
I hope to put the motor in, as long as the pieces I need from driftmotion arrive before thursday!
So when does he want us to start that Bonneville project? If we need any body work, my step-mom restored a few old chevy's and is really good at what she does. Plus, we might have a hook up on a good paint shop locally. I met the owner and he seems pretty interesting. I plan on trying to get my baby re-painted so I'll be the guinea pig lol

... of course it does. How do you think you're kids got that way? :sarcasm: It's all Glenn's fault though.. oh... wait. They're not boys. Then it was Joe's fault! :biglaugh:
By the way, need me to pick up some more wood shavings for the bedding? :biglaugh:

good luck with the shop, guys! i have been in the va beach area about 2 yrs now. i've been working on my car when i can, spent last summer playing with the MAFT Pro. looked around for tuning help and dyno time but, most places in the area didn't want to listen because it is not a 600hp bowtie or hemi.
i'am deployed right now but, will definiatley look you guys up in a few months.

I'm the Navy too, what ship are you on? When you get back, pm me. I have a MAFT on my car and a wideband so I can tune your MAFT pro.

forcefedsupra, thanks for the offer. i am not on a ship, i just happen to be in iraq right now. as for the tuning i have a wideband as well. i am just not completely knowledgable yet on the tunerpro software. i have no problems with wrenches but, computers scare me alittle. one wrong setting- BOOM, time for another rebuild. it is good to know there are other 7M guy's in the area, thanks

..... i hate banana yellow. It would be nicer with a better tuned engine, a nice turbo, blood red paint, and gun metal 16's with drag slicks :biglaugh: oh, and a matching interior.
I'll be continuing work on the website tonight. I have enough pictures to begin with an employees page and a few customers cars once I get permission and all that stuff :naughty:
