GTO RAM AIR III JUDGE
Here is another great project from Bill Prizer. Bill brought us this GTO Judge as a complete basket case that needs everything. As I understand, this car is 1 of only 8 white GTO Judges built in 1969. It is also believed that this could be the only 1969 GTO Judge Ram III with a white exterior and a red interior. This car is a complete nut and bolt frame off restoration and we are using mostly NOS parts to put in back into showroom condition.

1969 CAMARO ZL-1 RECREATION
This car was brought to us in pieces with no sub frame or drive train, it was a car that had not been on the road since 1972 and had 20 K on the odometer. This car was stored for many years and then was sold to local dealer and then to an employee of the local dealer which disassembled pretty much all of the car only to lose interest and to sell it to the person we bought it from. We are now build this car for our customer Scott Harper. This will be a ZL-1 recreation with a few up grades to make it a little more user friendly. The motor will be an modern all aluminum ZL-1 block from GM, 511 inch's and run on pump gas and make around 600 hp

Unique Performance Super Snake
This is the same car that we had here in the shop a while back for warrantee issues.
In trying to get the car to run correctly and to it's full potential and after repairing countless problems we discovered the compression ratio was 11:1 when we blew a head gasket, With major engine issues and was sent back to Unique Performance to have the motor repaired under warranty . The motor was sent out to George Anderson at Gessford Machine to be rebuilt. While all of this was happing Unique Performance went out of business and the car was seized by local police with 64 other cars. Now that we have it back were going to rebuild the way it should have been built in the first place.

1967 GT-500E SUPER SNAKE from Unique Performance.
A very cool car with a lot of issues, but too many to list here. With all the hype about this car it was pretty disappointing. After diagnosing that the compression ratio was to high for a super charger application the car was sent back to Unique Performance to redo the motor.

WILLYS JEEP 1960
Leo bought this from the widow of Governor John King here in NH. This Jeep was giving to John King by the State of NH when it was brand new. What really cool is that Leo serviced this Jeep from day one. When Leo brought it to us it only had 22,000 mile's on it and it was in excellent condition and very minimal rust. We had it media blasted inside and out and gave it a show car paint job. We did this for Leo about 9 years ago and these pictures where taken recently.
