About a year ago I received an email from then stranger Bob Ward, asking if I would be interested in shooting his project ’52 GMC 9700. Inside the email Bob included a few images along with a link to his build thread on 67-72trucks.com. After giving the thread a quick skim –I’ve since read it several times […]
Mike Pimmenta and Steve Luangpakdy ran around last summer with two of the most polarizing bagged Honda vehicles in the GTA. Mike’s car seemed to appear virtually out of nowhere completely finished, while Steve’s was a long time coming towards its current look. Though these two cars have no problem standing out on their own together […]
What really is there left to say about Nakai-san and his now famous brand Rauh Welt Begriff? Roughly six years ago RWB could have been considered a niche brand known only to those obsessed with, or living in, Japan but today RWB is a house hold name among enthusiasts. Behind some of the most popular Porsche builds […]

Unfortunately for me that’s the exact point my last car was written off via the blight of […]
There are some people who make building a car a very public spectacle. I’m not talking about those who share their builds in order to benefit others and get help along the way, I’m talking about people who tease endlessly and boisterously make claims that their project is going to ‘kill the game’ and ‘set the standard’. Then there […]
Being one of the most well-known Rangers to come out of Ontario Gary’s truck really needs no introduction. It’s appeared here in event coverage several times over, and been featured by a few other noteworthy media outlets. About a week ago Rob Anzit, of Basic Builds, got some one-on-one time with the truck and produced […]
It’s been two years since both the last time a Volkswagen Beetle was featured on the Stance Is Everything, and the last time a Taylor’d Customs build was featured, which is far too long for either. The “People’s Car” is no stranger to the Taylor stable with at least two —and sometimes three— kicking around the shop […]

Coffee Time: Mike’s S2000 – A Video By Basic Builds
Basic Builds mastermind Rob Anzit recently got the chance to spend some time with Mike Pimenta (@mike_s2k) and his ’07 Honda s2000. Bagged on Airrex struts, sitting on K3 Projekt Wheels, and sporting a host of both cosmetic and functional upgrades Mike’s car makes an excellent subject for the short video Rob produced below. Rob’s previous […]
Mini Moto Lab‘s latest build, Ms. Fat Booty, started out as a small side project for co-owner Anthony’s girlfriend to cruise around on and was nearly completed four years ago before life got in the way and the build was torn apart and shoved in a box. Brought back out years later as a much […]
In 2014 the SAAQ (Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec) released an amended list of regulations that all cars travelling Quebec roads need to abide by. Dubbed the ‘Hellaflush’ act many of the new rules strictly out lined what was allowable when it came down to ride height and wheel fitment. Tire stretch and camber were number one […]
