Hello everyone!

Little update for you all,

We are currently shut down for the foreseeable future. I have accepted a job offer as of a few months back! I am no longer taking on client repairs.

With that being said, I took on one last engine job for my buddy Josh over at JCS Refinish Co. Its a 1973 Firebird 455 pontiac with a comp cams 262. Been silent for 30+ years. Full overhaul, new pistons punched out 0.030 and a custom 1 piece rear main seal to keep those pesky oil leaks at bay. See comments for the first start video.

Sad to shut down but happy my business happened. Got to meet alot of amazing people and fix some truely amazing cars.

Cheers to the next chapter!

We've been busy making the shop warm for winter! Had to finish up a truck in the hoist to do the other half.

Couple cool projects coming in shortly tho! Like a TDI swapped Toyota Hilux and a 1993 Am General M35A3 for a refresh!

Big thanks to my brother Erik, cousin Chad and my friend Blake for giving me a hand!

Stay tuned!
