In the vast landscape of custom car builders, Ironworks Speed and Custom stands out like a diamond in a sea of rocks. Led by the visionary Roger Lee, this California-based outfit is not your average garage tinkering with cars. No, no, no. Roger's journey from a modest 700-square-foot shop to a sprawling 10,000-square-foot facility is a testament to his unwavering dedication and passion for crafting automotive masterpieces. And boy, does he know how to make heads turn.
Remember that iconic black 1970 Chevelle doing a burnout that graced the cover of Hot Rod Magazine back in 2014? Well, that was Roger's handiwork, and it catapulted him into the spotlight. But he didn't stop there. No, siree! Roger's latest brainchild, the Legacy series of GM A-bodies, is a game-changer in the custom car world. These turnkey cars are a blend of power, reliability, and style, featuring top-notch components like the LT4 engine and bespoke details that make gearheads weak in the knees.
From CNR radiators to Ring Brothers hinges, every part in a Legacy series car is meticulously chosen to deliver not just performance but a visual spectacle that leaves you breathless. And it's not just about what's under the hood. The interior is a symphony of carbon fiber dash pads and custom steering wheels, showcasing Ironworks' attention to detail. But it doesn't stop there. The team's innovative approach, using 3D CAD design and plasma cutting, ensures that every part fits like a glove, making these cars a true work of art. So, if you're a petrolhead craving a taste of automotive perfection, Ironworks Speed and Custom is where dreams are made real.
