On Feb 2nd, Classic Restos featured Bosskraft, talking about some of their current projects at the time and we've included a section of the show above, as it's not always available for viewing, depending on your location. Fletch is smothering the world bit by bit with the show, as he moves not only through Australia, but through the world with the series. Congratulations to Fletch for a job well done. You'd be surprised how hard he works to get this show together every week and then to keep the sponsors and networks moving in the right direction with it. Check out Fletch's website for more information about the show and where to buy the series all boxed up and ready to watch!  www.classicrestos.com.au

So much for the muscle car economy being down! This Boss 302 sells for $209,000 at the BJ auction. What a great sign for the industry and collectors, to see the value back in these cars. Also seems to show some signs of the economy turning around on the cars, too.

We assisted the owner of this Boss 302 to obtain information pertaining to the rarity of his Boss 302, so that he would be able to have it included in the advertising info for Barrett-Jackson and also as it went over the block. Suffice to say, this guy was extremely happy with the results of the auction and we were glad to be able to help!

We're working together with Kevin Marti, of Marti Auto Works, at the Barrett-Jackson auction, in Scottsdale, AZ to run a trade booth at the event. The event has only just started at the time of writing, but is shaping up to be absolutely huge!

Just attended the Barrett-Jackson Gala night, where several thousand attend on the night. Spent some time also with Jim Wicks, the organiser of the Mid America Shelby Meet. Very interesting guy.

Good ol' Fletch from Classic Resto's, popped out to Bosskraft and filmed several vehicles for an upcoming episode of the current series, featuring on 11 major TV networks throughout the world.

Fletch covered a couple of concours restorations that were currently on the go, such as the yellow '70 Boss 302, a calypso coral '70 428CJ Mach-1 and an engine change on a HIPO Mustang that we were working on at the time.

Fletch also covered one of our customers vehicles, which should make great viewing.
Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the show and check it out.

Check out this awesome new design Trans Am shirt, featuring George Follmer and his amazing #16 Trans Am Boss Mustang. We'll have these for sale at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona between Jan 16th & 22nd, so if you'd like one or more, signed by George himself, be sure to come along!

If you can't make it, contact Sean at bosskraft@hotmail.com and place your order before hand. Very limited run with sizes from S through XXL.

We're really excited to be working closely with Kevin Marti of Marti Auto Works in Arizona, USA and have a combination trade stand at the famous Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, January 16-22, 2012 with Kevin, displaying his awesome concours products on our restoration work. To display Kevin's items and our resto work, we're displaying our black '66 GT350 Shelby, giving it more interest than seeing a pile of parts in a box, or on display on the table. It's nice to see the parts in the context in which they'll be used and this Shelby is a real eye catcher!

The ever famous racing driver and super nice bloke, George Follmer, will also be at the event as an invited guest of Bosskraft. Be sure to pop around to the booth and say hi to Kevin, George and myself. It's shaping up to be a fantastic auction and something that should be on every car lovers bucket list!

Be sure to check out the neat T-shirts below, which display some of the great cars and precision driving that made George Follmer as famous as he is..!

Contact Mike Follmer, if you're interested in grabbing one. He'll sell to anywhere in the world and the prices are very attractive. Better still, order them all and have them signed by George at Barrett-Jackson!

6S1750 started life being leased by Shelby American to the Bardahl Oil Additive Company as their test car. Ordered originally as a black on black car without Lemans stripes, 6S1750 is 1 of 29 black non Hertz Shelbys produced in 1966, making this vehicle one of the rarest Shelbys ever built. After Bardahl finished using 6S1750 as a test vehicle, Shelby American leased the car to Ronnie Bucknum, the famous race car driver.  6S1750 was then sold for the first time as a used car through a well known dealership in San Jose, CA in 1969. After a number of documented owners, Bosskraft had the opportunity to secure this vehicle in 2010 which by this time was in need of a rotisserie restoration.  The vehicle was in storage in CA in this condition until April 2011, when Sean flew to the states to restore 6S1750 ready to compete the very next month at SAAC 36 (Shelby American Automobile Club) in May 2011. Even with a seriously quick 7 week restoration and being scrutinized by the toughest Shelby judges and competition the world has to offer, this remarkable car and super quick restoration achieved Silver at SAAC 36.  To add to this cars history, we're endeavoring for it to be competing at SAAC 37, Watkins Glen, and showcased at Barrett-Jackson 2012 with George Follmer, former Trans Am Champion, as our special guest. 6S1750’s full story is to be featured in an upcoming Mustang Monthly. Be sure to grab a copy!
