Posted on September 23, 2025 by Nicole Smith in What's New

Damon, along with his sons Adam and Alex K., recently picked up the first production-ready carbon fiber Coupe body! It wasn’t too long ago that they were picking up their 30th Anniversary Coupe build! In just a few months, he and his sons got the project rolling. Now they’re swapping out the original body for the new full carbon fiber body!

Under the hood is a Gen 4 Coyote engine paired with a T-56 transmission. Damon’s also in the process of installing a custom Apple CarPlay stereo system to complete the interior setup. He will be coating his body in a House of Kolor carbon fiber dye.
