Projects & Services
Every build starts
with a question
Four vehicles with no direct precedent, and the shop-built tools that make them possible. Images are concept renders unless noted.
The builds
In progress1991 Toyota Camry LE
Drag Monster Camry
What if Grandma's Camry ran high-10s and still drove home?
A tube-chassis EcoBoost sleeper with full carbon bodywork and its own ground-up operating system, hiding under a body that still looks exactly like a 1991 Camry.

Bespoke Miata
What if a Miata wore a BMW E39's face, and nobody could tell?
A canyon carver with a custom composite E39-style front end, a second engine swap to EcoBoost, and a rotary knob that reveals its real personality.

Scan-to-mold carbon fiber and chassis work, made to look factory.
