Delivery day all the way back to where it started... The Green Machine went home this week. It came a long way and marked a milestone being the first complete build to roll out of the new shop. From the beginning the owner wanted the car to look how it did when he bought it back in 1978. We stayed true to his wishes but added some modern conveniences to make it drive and perform more like a new car. The factory motif continued throughout the build including the engine compartment, interior, wheels, and so forth. A big thanks to the owner for allowing us to bring his baby back to life, our crew for turning out another beautiful build, and our vendors for the great products they provide. If you're in the Louisville area keep your eyes out as the owner intends to drive the wheels off the Green Machine...

Next up... This 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass is in for a full frame off restoration. As the owner put it, "whatever the cowl tag says is what I want." We can handle that. As you can see we'll have our work cut out for us, but luckily it's all there and mostly original. Stay tuned...

And another one done... This 1963 Corvette came to us with all sorts of mechanical and electrical issues. Along with needing a new convertible top installed. We kept peeling back the onion until we got all the issues fixed and everything working on the car. Some of the high points include a new radio, rebuilt heater box, rebuilt the trailing arms, rebuilt the gauges, and mounting the seats correctly along with a laundry list of other things. Now the owner can get out and enjoy it without worry this summer!

Another job completed... This 1965 Chevelle was back again for this year's round of upgrades which included a trunk restoration back to the factory grey/white spatter paint, hood hinge rebuild, and some exhaust work. Now the owner is ready for this year's show season. ❤️

Gapped, fitted, and ready for tear down... This '72 Chevelle has came a long way in the last couple months. Now it's time to get it all stripped down and in its first round of primer. Then the block party can begin. Stay tuned... #1972

Weekend recap... It was a busy weekend too say the least with 2 cars at 2 different shows 200+ miles apart. The Green Machine had a successful debut at the Pigeon Forge Spring Rod Run as part of the Dirty Dozen. It brought home an Ultimate 7 pick out of 600+ cars. While 'Ol Yeller was at the Bluegrass World of Wheel's in Louisville, KY. It also brought home some hardware winning 1st in class and Outstanding Restored. Big thanks to our crew for making it happen and of course our great customers for letting us show off their cars!!!
