1932 roadster
1934 roadster
This 1934 Ford Roadster began its journey as a doodle bug—a repurposed tractor assembled from a cut-up roadster body found in upstate New York. Our vision was to honor its origins by sourcing as many original parts as possible and restoring it to an “as-found” aesthetic, with every mechanical component fully rebuilt. The chassis, engine, transmission, and rear end were meticulously restored, along with the electrical system and original instruments. Even the upholstery was sourced to capture its vintage authenticity. Now outfitted with a modern 5-speed transmission and quick-change rear end, this roadster blends classic charm with the reliability and power needed for cross-country travel, paying homage to its history while ready for the open road.

From Farm Workhorse to Family Heirloom
Discovered on a farm in Burnet, Texas, this 1953 Jeep CJ2A bears the marks of its hardworking past, from bullet holes in the body to cedar tree “brakes.” Used as a farming tool for decades, this Jeep has now been given new life while preserving its original character. We restored the chassis, driveline, and mechanical systems, keeping as many original body panels as possible. Upgraded with an electric overdrive for its iconic Go Devil 4-cylinder engine. It also marks a milestone, featuring Maggie’s first full upholstery project. Ready for rugged use once again, this CJ2A will serve on the family ranch for generations to come.
From the owner:
“It has been in two car shows now and one people choice at one. Jeff worked with me on all choices to be made and kept me informed of timeline and cost, which i really appreciated. I would recommend the preserve to anyone looking for a high end restoration on their next project.”
1933 roadster convertible
From Original Classic to Custom Hot Rod
Originally restored as an early Ford V8 club car in the 1990s, this 1933 Ford Roadster has now been reimagined as a traditional hot rod, blending classic elements with custom upgrades. The chassis was reinforced for safety, with modernized steering and Lincoln hydraulic brakes for reliable handling. Powering the roadster is an 8BA flathead V8, paired with three Stromberg 97 carburetors, a 5-speed transmission, and a ’36 Ford rear end. The roadster’s Mercury-inspired details—like the ’47 hubcaps, steering wheel, and engine accents—add a unique touch, while custom 16-inch steel wheels complete its bold look. Inside, Paul Reichlin’s hand-crafted top and custom three-inch chopped top bring an authentic, period-correct finish to this vintage-inspired build.
1933 FORD TRUCK
1933 ford coupe
Discovered in Kansas with its rusted frame, this 1933 Ford Coupe was a relic of the past, scattered in pieces, and used for target practice. Staying true to its roots, we salvaged as many original parts as possible while transforming it into a genuine hot rod. Now, this coupe stands as a testament to resilience and craftsmanship, combining the soul of its history with the spirit of high-performance hot rodding.
the “little monster”
This 1929 Model A Coupe captures the spirit of 1960s drag racing with its high-revving 283 small block Chevy engine and a striking six-two carburetor setup. Built to channel the raw energy of vintage quarter-mile racers, this car pays tribute to an era when speed and style ruled the track.
