In the final moments of 2011, we want to take a moment to say thank you for all of the support you have given us over the past year… whether we’ve built you a car or you’ve bought a t-shirt.

We’ve got some great projects lined up and some serious tricks up our sleeves! Stay tuned, check in often, and thanks ahead of time for your continued support. We wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Photographer in the house: El Ojo Photo
Posted by: Austin Speed Shop on 12/15/2011
Our good friend Greg of El Ojo Photo stopped by last week while we were thrashing to get ready for the Hot Rod Revolution. I always enjoy seeing what others see when they are at the shop. We’re all so busy running around working that we occasionally forget how lucky we are to be doing what we’re doing. Seeing the shop through Greg’s lens is always a treat and a reminder of the bigger picture. To see Greg’s pics, click the tab below…

Our friends over at Republic Tequila (yes, the delicious organic Tequila with the bitchin’ Texas-shaped bottles) are going to swing by from 7-8pm and mix up some of their signature Margaritas. We’ll also be raffling some one-off bottles of Republic Tequila that we had custom painted by our boy, Darren Wenzel.
