I have spent the last couple of days redesigning www.WildrickRestoration.com. I know it is a simple site, but I thought I would ask for some feedback from the peanut gallery (you).

Comments? Suggestions?

Looking good, Doug. It is easy to roam around in and the pictures are quality.

Thanks for your work on Hudsons.

I'll throw in my two cents, and get everyone fired up.;) I'd like to see some "in process" photos. But that's what I always want to see.:)

I totally agree. I am discussing this with Doug. We need to discuss how, what, where, etc. There may even be weekly updates to ongoing projects.

Looks good, Sometimes simple is better. Websites always grow the longer they are out there, if someone puts the time in to keep it up-to-date.

I like your pictures they seem to load fairly quickly and i like being able to click on the pictures.

very nice.

I like your clever logo and look forward to seeing photos of restorations in process.

For me, having gone through the process a number of times I like to see the work in process. It tells me where things started and how they have come along. A lot of shops provide a build by build process. I think it is a good move. I have over 200 photo's of this project (I won't post them all and kill all of you off) but, a few might give you and idea of why I think that this is important so, there fore, I could not resist...

I should make it clear that I am Michael S. and I am doing the work on behalf of Doug Wildrick. I don't mean to imply that I am Doug.

I like the site. One thing I noticed and you may have already fixed this but I think where you have "Contract" you mean "Contact".

No,Contract is correct. This helps me better organize my time and schedule. It also helps prevent someone shipping their vehicle to me,not paying their bill and expecting me to store it and care for it for nothing. This has happened in the past and eats up valuable work space. I think Michael is doing a great job! I greatly appreciate the feedback from everyone. Michael has recommended "progress pix" of work in the shop. This will be great. I am currently working on several Hudsons for the winter,a '50 P,Cv,a '37 Terraplane woody wagon,a '32 Essex sedan with '37 T running gear,and a constant flow of clutch work. I just finished making Aaron DelManaco's '47 C8 sd.a running car again,with O/dr.and Drivemaster. Maybe we will see that sometime in the near future at some of the meets. My personal projects are stacked up and most are OUTSIDE in storage !! It's the way it goes. I hope to make some different pix soon, Drd

That´s a nice site and a very cool logo! I have to thank you again for the clutch that you sent to me, Doug... it´s working fine in it´s second year now!

FAQ would be good, I have asked questions and I think what I have asked has been asked before. Dr. has done work on my clutch, presure plate, T. O. bearing and flywheel. VicTor Z

I like the idea, will have to see if Doug is interested in putting it together. Putting it on the webpage would be pretty easy for me, he would most likely have more time in writing in than me posting it.

By the way, I would be happy to do the same sort of thing for anyone else in the Hudson community. For reference, it took me about three hours to take what www.WildrickRestoration.com was and create the new site.

Speaking of the good Doctor, I think some folks don't realize that when they had work done at other shops, the mechanic uses Wildrick clutches and clutch parts. For example, that was the case when Al Saffrahn rebuilt and installed my overdrive a few years ago. Al's the best in the west, and he has everything for Hudson trannys (no, not the kind with the Adam's apple). But I bet he still gets his clutches from Doug. :P
