    I checked out GUS'S on Google maps and saw that the giant is in the street views, but what's funny is Google maps blurred his face.

      Haha, they always do! Every Muffler Man out there has a blurred face.

    Just curious, why aren't stainless bolts used (bolts look like grade 8) or anti seize on threads of the grade 8 bolts?

    • @AmericanGiants
      @AmericanGiants  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We have started using stainless bolts in our more recent restorations but International Fiberglass certainly did not use them back in the 60s.

    • @DavidPinner-r9w

      ​@@AmericanGiantsstainless steel was expensive in the 60s

    There was a muffler man in the town of wilson NC that stood/stands at whites tire service and there was one of the women giants (wearing a bikini) in the front of a motel between Wilson and rocky mount on highway 301, she is not there anymore

    Joel, I absolutely love this video! I don’t know why, but one of your videos came up in my feed on TH-cam and I have always been a fan of muffler men. So I just had to watch it and I am now hooked, and subscribed to the channel!! I’m from Illinois. I’m just minutes away from Atlanta, so I can’t wait to take in everything that you’ve done. Would love to know where you’re actually located here in Illinois. I sent you a message on Instagram. Hope to chat with you soon

      Glad you enjoy the channel and hope you enjoy your visit to the museum soon! I actually live out of state and the restoration shop is in Southern IL near Carbondale but is sadly not open to the public. Doing our best to get things restored and up the the museum so they can be enjoyed by the public. Thanks for watching!
