It’s been a little while since our last post… again.
After sharing our Skool project back in January, life took an unexpected turn with another scan and some news we didn’t want to hear. They found a new spot in Samantha’s chest. It’s currently a waiting game, and she gets another scan this summer to see how much it grows, basically. Then we get the next steps from there.

But, in the mean time, instead of stepping away, we leaned in. We’ve been spending our time where we feel strongest… in the garage. Staying busy, staying productive, and doing what we love, together.

Here’s a little of what we’ve had going on lately:
• Cleaned up and repaired an Escalade that we’re now selling
• Engine removal on a water-damaged Cobra
• Building a 6.0 for a personal truck build
• Mechanical DOD delete for a friend of a friend
• Cammed 6.0 going together and install coming soon
aaaand of course some odds and ends in between. All in all, we’ve been busy to say the least!

The support we’ve had means everything, and we’re grateful for every single one of you that continues to follow along ❤️

Hey everyone! It’s been a long time since we’ve posted, and we wanted to try to change that.

Last year, Samantha’s cancer came back with a vengeance. So between treatments, a stem cell transplant, maintenance chemo, homeschooling, family life, and a plethora of other things… social media took a back seat.

We never stopped… we just pulled back and focused on what mattered most at the time. We’re back in Tabor and still building, learning, and doing what we love.

Moving forward, we’re going try to be more active on this page with updates, projects, and behind-the-scenes content. Samantha has also started a Skool community for anyone who wants to actually learn! Whether you’re trying to understand your own vehicle, get into building, or just want honest, real-world knowledge from the garage.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn without being talked down to or misled, that space is for you. Membership is currently free, as it’s still brand new, but she will be adding paid courses as well! She’s going to be starting from the bare basics, and is mostly focused on teaching women so they don’t get ripped off in shops, but really it’ll good for ANYONE just starting out… even your kids! We will put the link in the comments 🙂

Had an LT lifter fail where is didn't have play or noise just a dead miss on #7 intake so did new lifters and cleaned valves this week along with a much needed balancer replacement on this yeller c6 vette.

The way the intercooler piping and bov were tucked tight with the manual wouldn't work with the auto and then of course the intake to the turbo so I redid them to clear everything.
