I’m pretty much out in right filed in regards to the WNY car-building scene…and am wanting to know where the top notch shops are that do work that would be at a level equal to or greater than this car posted below. While I don’t think the car is amazing, it is pretty damn nice… [http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260448179181&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260448179181&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT) [![http://lh3.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAXyPzOCCI/AAAAAAAAi8w/lWsJchL39Ac/s800/IMG_8093.jpg](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAXyPzOCCI/AAAAAAAAi8w/lWsJchL39Ac/s800/IMG_8093.jpg)](http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/_SBuu0OTDQieVMAIRDdKAg?authkey=Gv1sRgCPj_gLbfm46sNw&feat=embedwebsite) [![http://lh5.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAX3oiavFI/AAAAAAAAi-M/YqS0Aj6kLbI/s800/IMG_8126.jpg](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAX3oiavFI/AAAAAAAAi-M/YqS0Aj6kLbI/s800/IMG_8126.jpg)](http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/7BeniPAaxYYSJ8tEu1Un1g?authkey=Gv1sRgCPj_gLbfm46sNw&feat=embedwebsite) [![http://lh6.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAX6xTerFI/AAAAAAAAi_A/KLihsvRolrs/s800/IMG_8139.jpg](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_QyVQJas6_Ao/SmAX6xTerFI/AAAAAAAAi_A/KLihsvRolrs/s800/IMG_8139.jpg)](http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/P9oM5sNgZlFFnYndC2dVbg?authkey=Gv1sRgCPj_gLbfm46sNw&feat=embedwebsite) ---

No, I just didn’t look closely. I saw a boost gauge and saw the pipes leading forward. I think I even thought i saw the turbos mounted in the fenderwells. I’m just an idiot, lol. ---

Im good friends with the guys there and i get to see all the cars they build. Every one is just perfect. Ken is the owner and is one of the most creative and skilled fabricaters i have ever meet. Stop by the shop and talk to Ken he really knows his stuff. You will not be disappointed!! ---

There are a few shops in the area. Milstream is huge for painwork in the Northtowns. KS Auto just converted from a parts store to a restoration shop. Then there is SCAP, The Car Shop in Springville and Wheatfield, Aero Collision, California Dreamin in NT, Klassy Kars in Akron, DreamCar in Southern Ontario… [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/what-local-shops-build-cars-of-this-caliber/71213.md?page=2)
