Hello, Tom Clarke here, bringing you the pulse from the hottest automotive playground – the SEMA show, Las Vegas, 2023 edition. When it comes to groundbreaking craftsmanship and artistic vehicular innovation, there’s one name that echoed louder than a supercharged big block this year: The Roadster Shop.
For those who might not know, The Roadster Shop has been sculpting metal into automotive masterpieces for years. They've established themselves as more than just custom car builders; they're automotive artisans. And this year? Well, they've outdone themselves.
Amid the neon lights, the glint of polished chrome, and the ever-present hum of high-horsepower beasts, one build stood out not just for its beauty, but for its audacious blend of old-school charm and futuristic tech. It was a marvel, a testament to what happens when passion meets precision, and The Roadster Shop had their signature all over it. Speaking with Dave Kindig, it was clear that on my 53 CF1 Convertible Vette build we would be using a Roadster Shop Chassis and yes, we are going after the prestigious Best On RS 2023 award, which is presented 2 November 2023 at 9:30 PM-1:30 AM. Fingers crossed!
It’s an accolade that speaks volumes, especially amidst the backdrop of the world's most innovative and creative automotive minds.
It's not just about the trophies or the spotlight; it’s about the art of creation, the thrill of innovation, and the pure love of cars.
So, from the heart of Las Vegas, a massive shoutout to The Roadster Shop for reminding us that in the world of custom cars, the boundaries are meant to be pushed, redefined, and sometimes, completely obliterated.
This is Tom Clarke, reminding all you car lovers out there that the journey is just as important as the destination. Keep wrenching, keep dreaming, and never stop pushing the limits in custom builds!
