GHOST SHIP: Custom Chingaderas

Thanks Jenn! Same to you and yours. Give Negan a belly rub for me!

 

Gracias!

 

definitely will! Thanks hun!

 

Happy Merry Ghost Ship.
Hope all is well on the other side.

 

Merry late Christmas! Those bolt ons look great man!!

 

Thanks Doc! Hopefully I’ll be making another trip out your way this coming year (pandemic pending)!

 

You’ll always be the original serial number one for my sliders though! Haha.

 

Vintage! And premium!

 

Yesterday I had my hiline bumper, x20 winch, camburg uniball ucas and wheelers bumpstops installed by Sergio, and wow! So stoked I met him and now have someone to do my installs that is close by. Price is right, work is top notch and Sergio is a stand up dude. Highly recommended!

 

Love your stuff @GHOST SHIP I hope you have a good new year!

 

Pics or it didn’t happen.

 

Thanks Nick! Glad to see you back! Hopefully we can make time to meet up again in the near future. Haven’t had a good trip out to the desert in a long time.

 

Thanks. I beamed in on the last rotation, only 2-week stay. My time is almost up, back to the outer rim for 9 months. I was thinking about you recently as I retraced a portion of the Mojave trail. I'll hit you up on text sometime in the the future.

 

Ride report- holy shit. The bump stops make a pretty big difference in the ride quality. Now feels a little more solid/ connected when hitting bigger potholes/ bumps. Not sure how much the ucas came into play for that too but I’m impressed with it all.
The bumper is a little heavier on the steering with the winch but not that bad. You feel it in tight turns going a little quick and when rolling to a stop. Haven’t been on dirt yet but I’ll add to this when that happens soon.
Thanks again Sergio, happy new year and see you soon when I get more parts to put on

 

Those superbumps are a vast improvement over stock and no suspension upgrade is complete without them. I’m glad you got to work it all out!

 

My Ghost Ship Bolt on Sliders are at Powdercoat. Hopeing I get them back this week. so excited. Can't wait to share pics

 

Ghostship, how much do you charge per hour (or per project?)?

 

I don’t like to limit myself to a set rate. Some jobs are more labor intensive than others, therefore making my time worth more. Others require a skill set that I’ve accumulated with years of experience and there are even jobs that are just what I’d consider “labor” jobs that anyone with tools can do. In each case, the customer is not only paying for my time and materials/consumables, but also for my knowledge and experience in performing the work.

That being said, I know there’s a few jobs that I charge about the same as a few other guys around here that can do them, and there’s jobs that I charge a lot less than average because that’s what I feel is fair for my time. I’m sure there’s even jobs that I charge more for but again, that’s what I feel my time is worth for that particular job. I have a price for what I think is fair for most of the recurring requests (CMCs, sliders, suspension installs...) but it really depends on what I’m being asked to perform.

 

As a new client of Sergio’s, I can assure you they’re reasonable for the work put in. I’m totally happy with what I paid and what I got out of it.
