In our custom shops in Bodrum Turkey and Sacramento California we build vintage, iconic cars and bikes with a modern twist. We CHOOSE a time once passed as our forum because we believe there's an aching poetry in things that carry patina. The same reason people are ineffably drawn to old European towns with their crooked cobblestone streets and chipping plaster, because they have a history much deeper than our own.
Couple original patina with painstaking hours trying to accomplish the "cleanest' build possible and you'll understand the dichotomy and love that goes into each one of our builds. Our process respects the essence of the original while not forgetting that cleanliness implies respect. Most tend to scratch their heads at the contradiction of trying to preserve an original hood emblem while adding JDM wheels coupled with modern 4 piston disk brakes but what they may not realize, however, is these things embody the beauty found in the blending of art and culture.
To truly understand what we do, you must understand the four principles of any Bobby Spade build; respect, purity, creativity and innovation. Hell, that sounds like a good base for an interesting life.
