It’s been a crazy summer. With dozens of projects in the shop right now, we’re working harder than ever before. With Fall’s arrival, that won’t change. But we do want to take this opportunity to look back at a few of our favorite projects from the summer that we think you’ll love too. Here are our top 3 projects from…
Our latest build is this beautiful 1955 Chevy truck that utilizes an Art Morrison chassis. The crew at the shop really enjoyed the build as well as collaborating with the owner Ward Johnson. I asked Ward for some history on himself and his thoughts behind having the truck restored, and he sent back a great reply, so I'm just going…
Having heard the stories of many classic car enthusiasts over the years, I find there are some common themes. The most consistent is stories about glory days from high school, the cool cars and unforgettable times with friends.

You may be a bit confused, as was I when the sharp looking Chevelle arrived,…
I love telling the story behind classic cars and their owners. Over the years I’ve spun many a tale, and a reoccurring theme I have found is the tendency for classic car owners to hold onto their cars for years…unlike our current era of disposable cars. Bob and Barb Mullins have a pair of classics they have held onto for…
Tri-five Chevys are a corner stone in the world of classic cars, and most enthusiasts have found themselves drooling over one at some point.
