Fresh off the showroom floor and now protected the right way.

This brand new Hyundai Tucson received a full protection package featuring Modesta coating technology to help keep the paint looking deeper, glossier, and easier to maintain long term.

Daily driver or weekend car, protecting your investment from day one makes all the difference. From harsh UV to road grime and wash marring, Modesta adds a durable layer of protection while enhancing the overall finish of the vehicle.

If you’ve just picked up a new car, now is the best time to protect it properly before the wear and tear starts.

Low, sleek, and built to turn heads.

This 1949 chopped & bagged Mercury came through the studio for full show preparation ahead of Motorex, and the result speaks for itself. From the deep, flowing lines to the laid-out stance, every inch of this build deserved the highest level of attention.

The custom pinstriping by Matt Egan adds another level of craftsmanship, tying the whole build together with timeless detail and precision.

Our focus was simple—get every surface dialled in with deep gloss, sharp clarity, and a finish that holds up under any light.

Cars like this aren’t just built… they’re crafted. And presenting them at their absolute best is where we come in.

If you’ve got a show, or event coming up, now’s the time to lock in your detail and make sure your vehicle stands out for all the right reasons.

Freshened up and show-ready for MotorEx this weekend

We had the privilege of detailing and preparing this incredible 1932 Roadster for display, making sure every surface is finished to the highest standard before hitting the show floor.

When a build is this elite, the presentation has to match.

If you’re heading to MotorEx, keep an eye out for this stunning machine on display — built by the team at Southern Rod & Custom and presented exactly how it deserves to be.

Best of luck to the team this weekend.
