So, I've been wanting to take things larger for a while. I have felt that I would never be able to get any larger than I am in my current shop. I quite often have to turn away work due to not having room to house more than one ongoing project at a time. If I get one all torn down and immobile, it has to fill that space until it is mobile again.
I also have been wanting to push myself more into parts production, etc. So I wanted a facility that I could block off and have room for more of that type of work. I also wanted to be able to have a larger showroom and parts storage where I can offer parts for sale in stock as much as possible.
The need for me to diversify my business has always been on the front of my mind as well. Been wanting to get into everything from street/drag/race engine/drivetrain tuning as well as classic restoration and resto-mod work.
I was presented with the opportunity to partner with a guy that has been involved in managing and owning speed/repair/fab shops most of his life. My partner's name is Gene Fine, and we sign off tomorrow and take possession of our new facility. 12,500 square feet on the river in Dayton, KY. The address is 935 Second Avenue, Dayton KY, 41074. Here are a few shots of the building in the shape that we take possession.
Also, the name that we do business under will change as well. The Sigma name will stay with the guys that are currently using it. The new company name is "Red 9 Fabrication and Speed".

Haven't even begun the site yet... aside from throwing a logo up there.
So, here's to 12,500 square feet of fun. We start to move in this week. Stop down and say hey.
