We build cool rides!

Day 1 of SEMA in the books. Stay tuned for more

11/03/2026

It was a crazy day yesterday prepping and preparing all our rides for today’s start to the show. Lots of content to come, so let’s have some fun 😉

10/24/2026

In just over a week, we will be attending and exhibiting at our industry’s biggest event, the 2026 SEMA show. But SEMA is more than the cool cars, amazing new products, and the fun atmosphere. It’s about the people, and I truly mean that. I know I speak for so many others that would agree. This community of ours is the best. It never stops growing, and never stops giving. Needless to say, we are all blessed to be a part of something so fun where we have met some of the coolest people on earth. Cheers to all my fellow gear heads 🍻 May we continue to build strong relationships with one another and build a bigger, better, and brighter future.

If you would have told 16 Year old me, to fast forward 25 years, that I’d have my own shop, doing what I love with the best team ever. . . . . I would have never believed you. It’s been a wild ride, and definitely been fun, but the crazy part is, we are far from done.

“To Infinity, and beyond!”

For this years GSMJI 2026, we had the pleasure of building Rough Country a unique themed vehicle that has been turning heads all over Tennessee showcasing their amazing bed cap for the Jeep Gladiators as well as several other products they offer. Huge shout out to the team at ECS for pulling it together in two short weeks, and thank you to my nephew Charlie Herman for helping sand the patina on this beast. Hang on Buzz and Woody, this is going to be a wild ride 😜

Special thanks to our build partners.

Retro Vibes suit this bronco very well. 👌🏽 Leveled with new shoes, it’s ready to take on some trails.

Clean. Classy. Elegant. This new wrangler came to us with only 16 miles on it looking for some upgrades. Equipped with a 2.5 Rough country lift kit and fenders, 17x9 KMC wheels, 37 inch BFG tires, custom Alea Leather interior, Rugged Ridge tube doors and inner fender liners, custom hood, a few performance mods for the 2.0 Turbo, and to top it off with our signature ECS front bumper, they will be sure to turn some heads wherever they roam. 🤘🏽
