1969 Charger - Billett Speialties Front Runner
This is the same 1969 Charger as the other video, but now we have installed a Billet Specialties Custom Front Runner. I also tried to get a better sound on video from the tail pipes.
This is a 1969 Charger that we have just broken in and are in the process of completing. It starts right up. Also check out the hide away headlights at the end of the video.
This is what happens when your little brother borrows your car.
Always think twice before you let your little brother borrow your car. The owner of this 2005 Cadillac CTS-V definitely will. This car was rolled up an embankment on the freeway and kept going until a large pole stopped it. The driver and passenger both had seat belts on and were unharmed, however the car was totalled. The good news is the car was for sale before the accident and he just lowered his price. Can you say "motivated seller"!
MTV Cribs recently filmed one of the cars that we worked extensively on. If you look on our project pages, under 1968 Chevelle with 572, you can see some of the transformation of this car. We installed the 572 and the upgraded gauge package, as well as a lot of other things from suspension to exhaust. DeAngelo says in the video it is probably the fastest Chevelle on Earth. We're not so sure about that, but it is one of the fastest Chevelles I've ever driven. Check it out, it is at the end of the clip.
Buying cars for our clients is always an adventure. Last week we drove out to LA to pick up a 1970 Challenger which was actually in great shape and was the right price. However we needed to leave on the spur of the moment to make sure we got it before someone else picked it up.
Monday at 5:00 pm in the middle of rush hour we left Phoenix for LA with a trailer in tow. The trip out wasn't bad and the car was exactly as described, except for a locked up rear end which made reverse impossible. The transaction went smoothly and we headed back to Phoenix.
The ride back was rough and long; we got back in town about 4:00 am. Other than the cops wondering what we were doing at the shop at 4 in the morning, we made it safe and sound. The main thing is we got the car the customer wanted at the right time and price.
Getting the car off the trailer was a whole other story without reverse. We needed to use Sandra Vergina's Nissan Power to yank it off. Check out the video of it. (Sound makes it better)
We are trying to take plenty of pictures so you can see the transformations of the cars we are working on. One of the more dramatic changes came on the 70 Cuda 440 Six Pack Car. It is amazing what some window tint and wheels can do to a car. We have a lot of work left but this is definitely a good start. Check out our Project Galleries, we are always updating them with new content.

Sandra has returned from vacation
Sandra Vergina has returned from her beach vacation after apparently stopping off in Vegas for some Super Bowl betting. Apparently all the rest and relaxation didn't soak in. When one of the guys refused to file some paperwork for her; he felt the wrath.
Nobody puts Sandra Vergina in a corner.
