Default It has been a while.

I guess we are long over due for an Update. Things have been really busy around the shop. We have been getting close to wrapping up Truck number 2 for Frank. The cab for the 60 is now out of the paint booth. We hope to have that installed on the chassis later this week.




The color is really bitchin. We decided to go with this new wheel from Budnik.


We have been working on getting the seat and interior laid out. We bought a bunch or distressed leather for the interior.


We had the Open House Party for all the guys on their way to Irvine for Run to the Coast. As you can see we even had a special guest in attendance. MISTER WAR. He was here signing autographs. We were able to raise 200 bucks for a local charity with the 500 bucks Greg spent on dinner.

We got another prototype version of our Wiring harness. This one goes in the 1960 Ford. You can see the Mil-Spec connector installed in the harness. The tech Flex wrapping is a closed loop wrapping and is put on before the connectors are finalized. The ends are heat shrunk. The Mil-spec connectors will make installation much easier since you only have to drill one hole in the firewall and connect things up instead of the trying to shove big connectors through a big hole and make that look nice.

We do not have solid pricing structure yet but we are still working out the details.






We will have LS1, LS2, LS3, LS7, LS9, and LSA engine harness's. We are also working on an LS engine harness that will working small block and big block chevrolets. You will be able to multi coils and DBW with a very affordable harness.

Kinda pricey, but they provide some strain relief and give it that F1 look.
