It was an era of constant experimentation, trial and error and drag racing 7 nights a week. But we had a challenge. Take our bone stock 87 LX and go head to head against not only modified cars, but one in particular that was backed by Ford itself...and for a brief moment, we led the pack.#cars #ford #history #autorepair And this is why we do what we do today.MERCHANDISE:Get Your UTG T-Shirts Here: uncletonysgarage.com/product/utg-t-shirtGet Your UTG Stickers Here: uncletonysgarage.com/product/utg-stickersOUR STORE: uncletonysgarage.com

Our 99 XJ looked like it was on its way to becoming a parts vehicle at best, until we noticed that under the mold, grime and general disgust was a solid, rust free survivor with good paint and all it needed was a good cleaning and some relatively minor engine work. A few days of labor and $1600 total investment later, we've got a sharp looking, perfectly running late model classic that could net us a several thousand dollar profit in today's market.#diy #sidehustle #cars MERCHANDISE:Get Your UTG T-Shirts Here: uncletonysgarage.com/product/utg-t-shirtGet Your UTG Stickers Here: uncletonysgarage.com/product/utg-stickersOUR STORE: uncletonysgarage.com
