Previous projects
This is a few of the past builds and projects that I have been involved with.
Client: KTL Restorations
Project: 1973 Cougar “Tut”
Another one of the amazing builds I helped design with the team at KTL Restorations. I worked with KTL and designed a complete custom interior which roots from the original XR7, with a modern touchscreen and luxury styling. On the exterior, I designed a full custom tail section along with details at the nose. Wheel design from the 1970 Mercury concept car “El Gato” were redesigned to a larger size and continues the original concept cars’ idea of bringing a classic car into the future. I created custom graphics on the exterior as well as custom badging to help bring it all together. This complete custom, all electric 1973 Cougar rests on a special Roadster Shop chassis and is combined with a an Electric GT 413 motor for incredible power and performance. Though the vehicle build debuted at SEMA in 2022, this vehicle is currently still in the works. Learn more about the build and the story behind it here.
Client: Superior Autoworks
Project: 1963 Nova “Atomic Bomb”
This is a full custom Nova built by Ed Denkenberger of Superior Autoworks for Ronson Burton. The interior was designed through a collaboration between Ronson, Superior Autoworks, and myself. Ed brought me on site to assist in creating a custom air cleaner cover that mimicked the style of the Nova. Lines from the hood and headlight bezels were pulled in to the final design of the air breather along with the two tone paint for the finished project. I fabricated the mold for the air cleaner cover using high density foam that I carved by hand. Superior Autoworks fiber-glassed, finished, and assembled the air breather using my mold. This vehicle eventually went on to earn a place among the Great 8 for the 2012 Ridler Award at Autorama in Detroit.
Client: Bob Hancock
Project: 1938 Graham “Sharknose” Delivery
The idea was to build a delivery vehicle based off of a 1938 Graham model. The rear half of the vehicle was modified using rear panels of a 1940 Chevy delivery and a hatch designed around the ’38 Sharknose sedan. Along with the hatch, my design ideas include a new lower panel with extruded exhaust and split bumpers, which are carried over to the front of the vehicle. I provided the client several concept sketches during the course of the design to help guide his project until we came up with the completed design for his build.
Client: Maxximus Technologies
Project: Prodigy LNG Supercar vehicle renderings
I designed this concept for supercar builder Marlon Kirby of Maxximus Technologies . Inspiration came primarily from the front of the Audi R10’s and the side of the Mazda Furai concept car. Using these cues in my vision and design, I created the overall concept renderings pictured here. The interior was designed around specific parameters including the seats, carbon fiber and burled wood construction, and navigational system. Maxximus Technologies also presented me with the project of creating the vehicle’s signature badge. The Prodigy is slated to be the world’s first natural gas powdered supercar, with an estimated 2000hp.

Client: Dave Adelman
Project: 1971 Pantera
This car was built primarily by Dave with a host of modifications both inside and out, with White Post Restorations taking the project to the finish line. With the interior started and much of the exterior already put together, I worked with Dave to come up with a solid plan for the interior. Final collaboration involved details and graphics to the car.
