GMS Hot Rods Launched

Based in the North West Auckland region, GMS Hot Rods is a new shop founded by Greg Stokes which specialises in stance, style and quality in terms of hot rod design and fabrication. Having contracted to Mac's Speed Shop for 4-1/2 years Greg wanted to reduce his long-distance work commute and to serve the North West Auckland area. Having grown up in the hot rodding hobby and being exposed to some great aspects of it here and overseas, Greg has built his own cars and had a big hand in other well-known cars with great results. GMS Hot Rods caters for the hot rod or custom car enthusiast wanting chassis work to any stage through to turn-key builds. Or perhaps smaller fabrication such as exhaust systems, suspension and component installation. LVVTA rectification work is also carried out. "It's all about bringing your new or existing hot rod dream to life with great stance and quality design and engineering principles resulting in an enjoyable driving experience", says Greg.
