Detroit Hot Rod Sport and Custom

Another great year at Autorama! Each build was able to take home a trophy. First place going to the BMW, Ford Coupe, then the Ford Pickup. A second place trophy went to the Cobra and the black Ford received a third place trophy that was shown at Road Knights(cc) booth. We thank you to all who came by to visit and we are very appreciative for all the compliments towards the work. Congrats to the owners and to the builders of the vehicle.

This Saturday!

Today, two flags were donated and made by (John Hicks). These flags will be at our open house for raffle on September 23rd, all donations going to Blum's Landing. Thank you for the support. We hope to see you all there!

Past couple of weeks have been noisy in what we at the shop call "The B side." But now we will have an official paint and body section for our painter . It's nice to have a concrete company just down the street from the shop. Thank you to the contractors for putting in all the hard work and thank you to all our loyal customers.

We had the pleasure of doing some paint work on a replica Batmobile from the television show in the 60's. Plenty of visitors came by and took the opportunity to take a seat and a picture. Painted by along with some new help in the shop.

2023 Open House

September 23rd! Save the date!

The engine bay and underside have been sealed and painted, and now the final assembly has been started. We are excited to see this beautiful build on the road, are you?
