Restorations are not to be taken lightly. It’s sometimes argued that a restored car isn’t a “show car” by regular standards, because the end product is maybe something that looks closer to factory original than “heavily modified”. Restoring a car to look exactly like something out of a comic book is another story altogether. Long story… Continue reading PROJECT D: 1987 Toyota Corolla Initial D Replica

Mazda RX8 + Honda S2000 (F20C) = RX2000?

Progress continued on World War Z at a good pace. The wheels were in the process of being produced, so focus was shifted elsewhere, namely under the hood and inside the car. When it comes to custom cars, you can certainly create a plan ahead of time and follow that as much as possible, but… Continue reading WORLD WAR Z – From The Ground Up Pt. 2

Before we get to that though, let’s start right… Continue reading Build: International Scout II Restoration
RESPECT YOUR ELDERS: BMW E30 > 2JZ Swap
“Respect your elders” is what the car said on its windows as it rolled in through the doors of Cyrious Garageworks.
