Clyde G from GT AUTOWORKS!!

Clyde G from GT AUTOWORKS!!

This is my carnal Clyde! He has been in the Lowrider scene in Toronto since 1994. He is the original TRUE PLAYAZ CAR CLUB president and the one guy who started this game first in Toronto.He is a very hard worker and is a perfectionest when it comes to his craft! He happens to be one of my best friends and the one guy I can count on. TRUE PLAYAZ FOR LIFE!! The frame here in these photos happen to be of my 1979 Monte Carlo frame. I asked Clyde to wrap my frame and was expecting the ususal style of wrapping a frame. To my surprise homie has gone way above and beyond the norm. My frame is going to be the first ever in Toronto to have perfectly smooth corners. Its going to look like I bought it wrapped!!!
For those that don't get what I'm saying, you gotta see the work that goes into something like what Clyde is attempting to do!The norm is to Make a pattern out of paper, Cut the metal piece and weld to frame.Clyde is going a few steps further by not only welding and completely wrapping the frame but he is meticulous refining the weld edges on the WHOLE frame. Its truly a labour of love!!
Clyde!THANKS HOMIE!! I know when the SUPREME MONTE CARLO comes out its going to turn a lot of heads all thanks to you!
