It was a good day at work today, lots of cool stuff in the shop.

Besides that, Good Guys is in town this weekend and it's 85* and sunny.

Not that it's all rainbows and unicorns here though, we really do work on regular vehicles, too. :D

Very nice, I really like the clean clutter free environment.
 
That's a clean shop for a little body repair action on the white ford! The slide hammer is one of my favorite tools:)
 
Where is that?

Scottsdale, AZ..... The Penske 101 Collection.

If you're ever in the area and would like a "real" behind the scenes look at what we do, just let me know. I'll give you the nickel tour, guaranteed.

Nick Micale, Lou Czarnota, and several other folks that have come through here will tell you, if you make the effort to pass by, you will not be disappointed in what I show you. There is no other car guy place like this on earth, honestly.

If you are planning to come to Phoenix, contact me.

The owner is a good friend of mine. We repaired/painted the front fascia and put PPF on the entire front end for him. The car is all but flawless.

Look up Ryan Woon's Supra on YouTube. You won't see this car, as it was his "street version" but you'll get more an than idea of his Supra "capabilities".

He owned this "street version" car for about six years, sold it, and some six years later (last month) bought it back from the guy who bought it from him.

It's right near 800 HP to the wheels (just like he sold it) and when we went out played around a bit, it was all I could do to just try and keep up with him in my TR........... The car is a MONSTER! It is one of two 2JZ-GTE cars he currently owns. The second one is the one in the videos.

It's for sale, if you're interested, but the sticker shock will keep most away.... better than 100 grand. It is one of the best "street legal" examples of this particular car in the land.

Finding a 2JZ-GTE car that hasn't been riced out and/or roached out to be a complete turd is like reaching for and grabbing the golden ring on a carnival carrousel.

It ain't easy and it will only get harder.

Hmmm. I'll be in Vegas in April followed by a stopover in Phoenix to visit our data center and I've been talking about spending a half day or so in Scottsdale. I'll reach out if I have time this trip. Appreciate the offer.

You should. After all, it was one of my guys who did the new interior for your car. :)

I am most times a very busy guy, but when folks make the effort to stop by, I make sure they aren't disappointed.

If you come to town, be sure to reach out to Nick Micale. He'll probably make the time to come by the shop and join you for a visit, we see each other pretty regularly.

Sounds great. Weekdays only I assume?

If I need to come in a Saturday, I'm willing to do that..... but only after 12 pm.
