He knows his Land Cruisers. Lots of guys on here have used him. I have used him on my 1973 40 as well.

 

[alex e]

I'm talking like off-road shop.....custom kinds of fabricating shop

 

[jebber]

How much fab work do you need?

 

[alex e]

Assemble a pre-bent Metaltech cage and install, finish new electrics and fuel I started.
Clutch, driveshaft from woods, braking system.

Baertrax. They rebuilt a diff for me and did a good job.

 

[alex e]

Baertrax is what I was hoping I still had access to. I loved meeting them years ago. Any idea on their hourly rate?

 

[hank14]

No. Sorry I'm not sue about that but Josh was fair to deal with and I'm sure he'd let you know.

 

[alex e]

Absolutely will call them. I like those guys and they do good work.

 

[CandyPants]

No. Sorry I'm not sue about that but Josh was fair to deal with and I'm sure he'd let you know.

Josh Bertschy? I'm pretty sure he sold Baertrax. I know the shop is still there, but no Josh.

 

[alex e]

Ugh. Well I will holler at them regardless since I'd like to get the rig gone.

Josh Bertschy? I'm pretty sure he sold Baertrax. I know the shop is still there, but no Josh.

Josh bought it from Russ and Christy Baer; did he sell it already?

 

[CandyPants]

Josh bought it from Russ and Christy Baer; did he sell it already?

Pretty sure he did. He's focusing on racing, I believe.

 

[alex e]

Me too! Texana 180 just happened....and the 911 on the track at Motorsports Ranch.

I would check out Lonestar 4x4 in Denton.

I have been there a few times to check them out, and I am actually going to have them do my entire 80 with the Klevar stuff.

Work should start next week, so I can't speak about their quality yet, but what I saw when I checked them out really impressed me. Lots of attention to details and very meticulous on what they were doing. They seen to do all kinds of customization too

 

[alex e]

I need meticulous wiring as I am a meticulous dude. Great selling point too and if its meticulous I can rest easy when I drive it.

Hey Alex, Josh sold it and the people I have spoke with like the new owner better. Josh did a great job on my links, but was pricey.
Shop moved off lombardy / harry hines area and is much larger.
