Zakira's Garage

Zakira's Garage Zakiras Garage specializes in collector and enthusiast car maintenance, repair and rejuvenation.

Our business was started to work on a private collection but over the past two decades our work has changed to primarily motorcars for regular clientele. The core of our work lies in restoration but requests for regular maintenance has developed a service side of the business as well. Our racing heritage is an important aspect of what we do, ranging from engine dynamometer testing to full motorcar development.

1984 Volkswagen Scirocco wearing a period-correct Kamei X1 body kit.

This Mk2 stopped by Zakira’s Garage for some of the usual Scirocco needs and a full once-over before driving season kicks off. Keeping these analog-era, CIS German classics sorted out and on the road is something we enjoy doing. Cars like this are getting harder to find—especially ones that still capture the spirit of the era so well.

We test fitted and verified headlight function on our 1974 Lamborghini Countach LP400 project this week. It might not be the most glamorous part of a restoration, but confirming everything works before paint and final assembly prevents a lot of disassembly and possibly scratching a fresh paint job.

World Laughter Day is officially May 3… but Facebook seems to think we should celebrate it today. Maybe it’s just because it’s Friday.

Either way, consider this your reminder to laugh, smile, and appreciate the little things.

In that spirit, enjoy this video of a few geese casually walking into Zakira’s like they own the place — and leaving us a little “clue” to prove they were here.
