About us

Josh has been working on cars since he was five years old. He grew up alongside his dad learning the mechanics of old cars. In high school he got a job sweeping floors at Norm Francis Street Rods. During that time, he gained more knowledge and experience building and creating custom cars. He mastered his skills with suspension, chases, and sheet metal work. When Norm retired Josh went to work for the Smithsonian building static display WWII aircrafts which are on display at the WWII Museum in New Orleans. When the museum was completed, he advanced to the Department of Defense in the F18 program building and working on fighter jets. Now, Josh is a finding ways to bring hot rods and off-roading together.

His current project is a dentside F100 truck, with long travel beams, currently prototyping LS motor mounts.
