I'm going to call hoax. This is not a real restoration shop. The floors are too clean and everything is too well organized. Heck, who even know the name for those cool adjustable C-bar clamps.

Looks like one of those shops you see on TV,where there is no grease or dirt,no rusted parts,and the mechanic guy never gets his hands dirty.All the parts come apart easily and new ones fit perfectly the first time.

Hi all, prime painted the pioneer plates and made a bracket to fit on the porta power in aid of removing the axle. These are normally very hard to remove and a hammer is the general option. I have made this so I can use it on a single or bogie and the axle came out with no damage.
