A Little Throwback with a Lot of Meaning
Share
This project holds a special place in our hearts. We were honored to complete this build for a longtime customer and friend — someone we had the privilege of working with for nearly 30 years.
As we were finishing up this car, we learned he was dealing with some serious health issues. We pushed hard to get it done so he could see the final product, knowing how much this build meant to him. We’re deeply saddened to hear of his recent passing.
Over the years, we had the opportunity to work on several of his cars and motorcycles. Every project reflected his old-school, no-BS attitude, his passion for building, and the incredible circle of friends he kept close. He accomplished a lot, and it’s humbling to know we played a small part in some of those journeys — especially this one.
These photos show the exterior of the car we just completed, and we were fortunate to have built a custom interior for it about a year earlier. This was more than just another project — it was one of the final builds he poured his heart into, and we’re proud to have helped bring it to life.
We’ll miss the stories, the grit, and the drive he brought to every conversation and build.
Rest easy, friend — and thank you for the years of trust and inspiration.
