This 1928 Ford sedan has been in the same family for many decades, but today, the owners wish to turn it up a few notches. They brought it to us ready to transplant on to a new chassis complete with small block Chevy power. This one will be built in stages, with the first phase configuring the chassis and suspension.

This 1938 Chevrolet came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop in need of a re-powering, some upgraded suspension from Speedway Motors, wiring, and more. The V8 Speed team installed a Chevrolet Performance Parts 350 cubic inch V8 engine and rebuilt the TH350 automatic transmission, and plans call for the installation of a Vintage Air A/C system as well. An American Autowire harness will tie all the electricals together, while a new fuel tank from Tanks, Inc. will store the fuel until the gas pedal is mashed! New fuel and brake lines will be installed, along with upgraded brakes and a Mustang II-style suspension system from Speedway Motors. It will also recieve new sheetmetal and paint. It's a cool car that has a lot of family history, and we're happy to bring it back to the road for our customer!

This 1946 Ford Coupe (Tudor) came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for a repaint, as well as some rust repair and other fixes. Plans call for an exterior paint stripping, sheet metal repair, bodywork, priming, and shooting a new coat of shiney metallic charcoal paint. It's going to be a sharp ride in 1966 Mercury Coventry Gray!

We had a cool 1947 Lincoln street rod roll into the shop recently in search of an A/C system leak fix, and we ended up adding some cream and red old-school pin stripes to break up the acres of maroon paint. Our in-house painter J.J. handled the task with ease, putting his steady hand, squirrel-hair brush, and One Shot paints to add some style to this classic ride. Contact us at the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for striping on your ride! Click Read More to see the action!
This 1947 Willys CJ2A has not run in quite a while, so the owner brought it to our shop to have the V8 team return it safely to the road. It's a cool old rig for sure!
