Closing operations

The time has come to change direction, custom work is fun but no longer pays the bills. I'll be looking either for a job in related field (not likely to find) or switching to body a fender type work. Thanks everyone who purchased my SSR custom items, and who offered their opinion on them.
For while I'll still be able to make the items as long as supplies of materials last.
All the focus now on finishing my ZZR project, will still hang on this Forum,
As always :-)

That's too bad.... I really like your work. I think your cab and tailgate mod should have come from the factory that way,among other items of your's.

I'll send you a pm,hope you still have some of these left!

Damn, I never even saw most of your stuff. I sent you a PM for 2 Emblem guards. one for both of my hoods, and ask for info on The Bed Rail.

Maybe you don't have to close up shop right away.

Big thanks to All!

Thanks for the kind words, it really means a lot!
I will reply to every PM regarding the items, and will fulfill every order.
Please check Modifications and customazation section in a few days, I'm just about finished with the retractable chin spoiler. it may be a curios item.
Once again thanks for the support, I enjoy your company and not going anywhere:-) Just stop development of new items for a while.

ZZR has this picture of this (as well as other items) in his photo gallery.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to locate the name of George's webpage. I thought it was something like Impala studios.

As others have stated George, I am really sorry things haven't worked for you as you have put so much heart and effort into great SSR creations for us. We appreciate very much what you have done and I'm sure would have been much more supportive in better economic times.
