So glad to see young guys this talented in East Texas. I grew up in Tyler and now in Longview. Hopefully I can get over to see you guys this summer.

The Tunderbird looks amazing and I remember your F100 from the magazines a few years ago. Are you guys taking anything to HeatWave in Austin this year?

Thank you guys!

Aggie91, you should stop by whenever you are in Tyler! We have not been to Heatwave in Austin since 2007 but we are actually planning on going this year and should have a booth there too. We will have the Thunderbird, at least one of the two F100's I have in the build progress, and possibly another car that is currently being built.

Compos Mentis, this was a fun project that we put a lot into because of the history we have with the car. We have had it in the family for over 20 years. The entire car was designed by my younger brother, Jonathan, and the wheels are a design that he really wanted to look unique and like a fine piece of jewelry. He loves the knock-off style wheel and seven-spoke designs but he really wanted to bring out the concave look in this wheel. The "thunderbird" in the one spoke on each wheel is just a designers detail that makes them really cool and one-off too. The machining was done by Greening Auto Company but we are planning on having this service in-house very soon as well.
