Adding Their Own
Touch Herb Fraser and Scott Smith Show Off Their Handiwork |

As I was growing up, my Mom always used to say, "think big and use your imagination!" I think about this every time I see one of our finished cars. Our customers are as creative as they come, and often fabricate custom parts themselves to add an even more personalized touch to their cars. |

Herb Fraser, of New Jersey finished his Roadster back in 2005. It was the first car he ever built and he enjoyed the project immensely. His Roadster kit was a non-donor that he painted himself in his own garage. Herb also installed real walnut burl lap inserts for the dash, console, glove box and door panels that he designed and constructed himself. |

Scott Smith dreamed of owning a Roadster ever since he first saw one back in 1968. Forty years later his dream became a reality (after permission from his wife of course). |

| With a background as a navy nuclear welder, machinist and mechanical enthusiast, he too was able to add impressive custom parts to his kit. His dash is handmade from red oak leather and he installed heat shields for the entire engine bay with spun ceramic insulation in-between. He even added some red paint to the engine himself, for that final touch of detail. Scott’s car took him three years to complete due to his job that requires him to travel frequently, but he enjoyed every second of it and would love nothing more than building another kit. | |
