It’s been a busy summer, and it’s about to get busier!
This summer, we’ve been working behind the scenes to create a memorable customer experience. From new custom services to fine art in the lobby, the shop is becoming a one-stop-shop for Fine Automotive Art and Excellence.

supercar saturday
This month, we had the pleasure of attending Supercar Saturday with a truly special car—a 2020 Superformance MKIII 427 S/C Cobra, generously loaned to us by our friends at Mike’s Classic Cars. This modern continuation of the legendary 1965 Cobra combines vintage style with modern craftsmanship, and it was a fun contrast alongside the newer exotics and performance builds at the show.
While there were plenty of jaw-dropping vehicles on display, the Cobra held its own with its unmistakable silhouette and deep, throaty V8 rumble. It was great to see so many people stop to admire it, share stories, and talk shop. These events are a great reminder that automotive passion spans generations, from cutting-edge supercars to timeless classics.
A huge thank you to Mike and his team for the opportunity to showcase such a beautiful and iconic machine. We’re grateful for the partnership and always excited to share a piece of automotive history with the community.

We recently had the opportunity to attend Driven by Heart: A Drive to Make a Difference, a community event hosted by Arkfeld Wealth Strategies in support of Heart Ministry Center’s Fresh Start Job Training Program.
The event was held at Peter Fink’s incredible car collection, one of the most impressive in the area. It brought together local businesses, car enthusiasts, and community leaders for a night focused on making a real difference.
We’re always inspired by the way our community shows up. It was an unforgettable evening, and we’re grateful to have attended.
all new art gallery in the shop
last month, we started selling the art and photography prints displayed on our shop walls. Our space now features a curated gallery of automotive art, including Sebastian’s bold supercar paintings and Ricky’s striking travel photography. We’ve also expanded our display with a die-cast car collection generously donated by our client, Robert Apodaca, which perfectly complements our growing Hot Wheels collection. Whether you’re into vintage memorabilia or one-of-a-kind artwork, stop by the shop to experience it all in person!

new custom services
We’ve been cooking up some exciting new projects in the shop! After years of working alongside some of the top automotive professionals in the area, we’re pushing the boundaries of our craft with customized aftermarket pieces. From hand-painted emblems to powder-coated calipers and engine parts, we’re bringing a new level of creativity and personalization to every build.
These one-of-a-kind details make each car feel truly unique—because we believe your vehicle should reflect your style, down to the last bolt. Whether you're after a subtle custom touch or a full visual transformation, we’re ready to make it happen.

Highlights
Behind the scenes, we’ve been taking care of some pretty impressive projects lately!
Viper srt10
We completely transformed the look of this 2006 Dodge Viper SRT10, starting with a deep clean inside and out, including the undercarriage and engine bay. After that, it was time for paint correction and a 2-year ceramic coating to bring out the best in the finish. But we didn’t stop there. The wheels were meticulously cleaned, refinished, and hand-painted to match the new look. This Viper has never been cleaner and thanks to our work, it’s never looked better.
Silvia
Last month, we had the chance to work on a rare addition to the area—a stunning blue Nissan S15 Silvia that just arrived from Japan. At some point in its life, it received a repaint, and we brought it to the next level with a full wet sand, paint correction, and ceramic coating. The result? This 25-year-old icon looks like it’s aged in reverse—better than the day it left the factory.
