Some keen eyed readers of this blog will know that I released a private feature on this car in 2021. Well I went back and had a talk with Kylor and got some more details on this build so we could give it a proper write up. This car has been around a few years and has its fair share of bumps and bruises. The photos below were taken mid season 2021, the car is currently being prepped for a full respray and is getting some new goodies to go along with the fresh paint. I don’t doubt that the blog will see more of this machine in 2022, enjoy the breakdown below!
Background:
“I’ve always tried to take pride in the style I bring to my machine. During the drive to Asheville, North Carolina to purchase this car; I was unsure of any vision I really had for it. Upon arrival, the car brought me to complete shock. It was a rust-free and uncut KA car; truly a survivor for today’s day and age. It was clear to me at that point that I needed to make it handle to my standards and maintain its “factory-feel”, but still provide a low & aggressive style. After nearly 2 years of personalizing this rig into my own, I truly can’t envision myself piloting anything different.”
