[elliottdl704]

I love the desk! It turned out great, just sorry you had to cut up your car. Do you have a,"how to" video showing how to make a car desk?

[avda007]

[1positivesoul]

Les is BOSS this guy is great on film.

[SuperOv10]

Gots ta get me an office so I can have a desk some day, HA. NOW as far as nice guys go....It takes a "BETTER PERSON" to sit down last at the dinner table,It is the polite,unselfish,classy way to live your life and ya still get to eat too!!! Treatem like you want back yourself..Your Correct !

[TheUnDeRGRouNDHoBo]

man im with polish guy that thing waz bloody royal ugly but what you came up with was bloody fantastic must a cost a bob

[coachD111]

Desk looks great!

[ZONER4201]

Where's the Hudson? Was it the hornet?

[swrnc]

@ZONER4201 Missed talked on that one, it was the Nash I was talking about, accidentally said Hudson...

[gtsdesigns]

thats amazing! but I couldnt help but to imagine the whole entire car running and looking like that!

[swrnc]

@gtsdesigns Yeah, that would have been nice.

[tertessa]

Nice work Pete!

[coachieshort]

no pete its not just a car,its love of a car,

[doberfag]

tell less to chill out. he can always go back to the eastern block where he comes from and try and find a classic car that the commies made.NOT he must have forgotten where he came from and what it took to get him here...... i dont see granite and marble in your shop everywhere so what has les kicked pete down?

[swrnc]

@doberfag Actually Less is a really nice guy.. I like Less because he is for the blue collar working class-he HATES Corperate America. All his friends and hang out crowd are people like you and me, he's not a show boat or a show off, just a guy that came to America, started a business and made it. Less is an alright guy......

[h88auto]

there is a bright side. You got money in your pocket. A rare car. And now parts for a dodge :)

[swrnc]

@h88auto Thats true!

[ruwithlee1970]

couldn't you use his car to reassemble your car at least partially ? P.S. I hate people like that guy he's a major asshole !

[PonyPower71]

Les is the type that just grates my ass lol. Cheap,asses want it all....NOW & for nothing. I could see myself making a desk out of his Mercedes. At least he got what he wanted and was happy in the end. Pete you go way beyond what most would to make their customer happy. hell of a job as always!

[defilogik]

quid pro quo... I don't care what anyone else in this thread says.... if you think you did the right thing, you did the right thing, and maybe the satisfaction of doing the thing that you felt was right was more than even the rent itself. Absolutely beautiful job Pete, I absolutely commend you for going up and beyond what most would have done. At least someone sticks by their guns these days even if they don't want to.

[iceman22st]

I hope the price was higher to compensate for the quality of the car you ended up using, and I still would have charged him what it cost you for the car you didn't use.

[swrnc]

@iceman22st I got enough to pay my major monthly bills off and by some grocerys...

[futer3669]

It's not just a car. They don't make them anymore. Cut up a civic.:)

[futer3669]

How sad. I can't believe you cut up classic cars to make desks. What a shame. I would rather see it driving down the road then half of one in an office,

[futer3669]

It's sad to see all thoses VWs in that junkyard. I love Bugs.

[swrnc]

@futer3669 Yeah,I love bugs as well, this guy had alot of them, to bad they where mostly just parts cars and unrestorable..

[futer3669]

@swrnc Thank you for the reply Pete. You could restore some of those Bugs. You can restore anything. as long as the rust isn't to bad. All it take is money. I would love to have one that look stock but will pulls wheelies. Thanks again Pete keep up the good work.

[woodzo40]

Hell the trim and parts are gold to somebody. Tell him to fuck off and cough up the money scooter. On the look for 56 Ford Int trim for the door panels.

[thisisunreal1]

Only problem is that looking at the desk just shows what could have become of the car. Any particular reason it had to be that car? Why not any other 50's car or in Les' case, a nice VW bug or a Nazi staff car?

[bain1013]

Pete I respect u for that it takes sum balls to do what u do and to cut your car for somebody else needs and wants u make the best out of every situation

[swrnc]

@bain1013 it's all in a days life/work, there will be other cars, this one kinda ment somthing to me, because I was so used to seeing it out in the back everytime I walked back there....

[marcellinasfigaro]

Desk looked great! Les was happy! How did you end up in a situation where you HAD to cut up your car? Did Les approve the other car before you bought it? Couldn't this have been avoided?

Shouldn't have cut up that car.  Sorry Pete..............

[swrnc]

@marcellinasfigaro Actually my car was unrestorable, the floors where rusted out completely-front and back, the truck floor was gone, no gas tank, engine locked up and missing a bunch of parts, rear axle missing spacer bushings, ect ect. It was just a nice car to look at and bring back memorys, I kept leess's car parts and he paid me extra to cut my frontend off.

[AcapellaDS]

No regrets Pete. You did a damn good job and it's time to move on to the next great job. There will be another day for the Dodge.

[swrnc]

@AcapellaDS Yeah, I agree, the car was a nice example of what america used to be, art deco all the way, but yes--time to move on. The desk will always be there as a great peice of art for everyone that see's it to enjoy.

[soloM81]

booooooooooooo Pete you should have not cut the car

Les sure did have a big grin on his face wahaha

[swrnc]

@soloM81 I didn't want to, but I did, and yes Less was very happy, he thinks his desk is nicer then mine and Minnies---

[mustie1]

cant christien rebuild herself.....

[AXE2501]

the desk looks great but i guess that job twanged a couple of heart strings in the end didn't it

[swrnc]

@AXE2501 I didn't sleep for a few nights having nightmares about it, but I got over it,

[Mopardude]

Thats sweet! You have any vids of the couch too?

[swrnc]

@Mopardude The couch isn't built yet, but you can bet on it, that there will be videos. Pete

[70dejavu]

Great Job Pete !!

[ThePaulgregg]

I feel bad about your car Pete especially now I see what it could have looked like!! WOW!!! That is one mega desk...

[peteq1972]

I recognise Bruno's dulcet tones anywhere YAY :D

Any 50's car made into a desk is so cool, Les, go make a desk from a polish car (lol, *imagines it)

[swrnc]

@peteq1972 R.I.P. My Little Best Friend "BRUNO"... PETE

[tb72live]

PETE YOU ARE THE MAN. AND THASTS JUST THAT!

[ziggassedup]

Desk looks nice.

[lagardere1949]

Nice guys feel the pain...................

[swrnc]

@lagardere1949 everytime...

[Jx1x3]

@Mantas840 I can't fuc*ing agree more. damn shame :(

[matthgmdude1]

I can't stand people like Les who just seems to come in and say "oh even though I just bought this car I want this other car instead because it looks better than mine at the moment." Wait for the finished product jackass! You don't go to a restaurant and order you're meal and see someone else's later and demand that they give you their dinner so that you can be happy. Sit You're ass down and wait for what you ordered!

[peteq1972]

@matthgmdude1 lol, good analogy.

[swrnc]

@matthgmdude1 Yeah some people are picky bastards, this that and the other, ya just got to learn to deal with them and make a laugh out of it instead of a gripe.....

[wuggacrt]

Pete how long have you been doing the desks ? Where did the idea come from ? I first seen one of these in the early 80s in a hairdressers it was EK Holden 1960 model . Cheers keep up the good work .

[Mantas840]

Looks great. Shame it wasn't the whole car looking like that...

[HRVAT1975]

wow that desk came out gorgeous, real nice job...

[Ridge97]

damn pete thats a nice desk..the damn president should be happy wih that

[CorsaAGSi]

Nice guys finish last..

That's what she sad....

[CorsaAGSi]

Junkyard ,gotta love it.

[Thisoldcar]

jWhat a funkin dip shit, his momma and papa named him correctly! MR Less, yes witrh 2 e's for less than smart! He should only be concerned about the finished product and the end cost not how and what the project beginning is or how it starts out. A real jerk as far as I am concerned. Sorry but t hat's how I see it and feel about it.

[mgbsalta]

Junkyard Hunters, now that would be a good reality show.

[swrnc]

@mgbsalta Yeah it's fun going to these old junkyards and drulling over all the stuff, It's a feild day for my friend pete when he gets to leave the shop and go junk hunting....

[DEATHTRAPHOTRODS]

Looks great Pete. what happened to the car you brought for les is it yours now?

[swrnc]

@DEATHTRAPHOTRODS Yeah the car is mine, I have cut it up and kept the front and backend,,

[DeltaCo7175]

c'mon pete, you didn't like that car.........any way nice job on the desk wish i had one !

[swrnc]

@DeltaCo7175 Yeah I hate to say it,, I did like that car, it was one of the last cars I had from my 200 car junkyard I used to have out in the back of my shop, this was the car I never sold parts off, The car that I always focused on when going out to the back.. Yeah I liked this car alot....

[4HitsWilystyle]

thumbs up bud! cause I feel your pain!!

[swrnc]

@4HitsWilystyle I still feel it today.
