Fully Torqued Story

Steve Pazmany’s true passion has always been cars!  And Steve loves them all – from big block muscle to European exotics and everything in between.  But those classic American muscle cars, trucks and imports of the 1970s, 80s and 90s that he grew up with might just be his favorites!  Steve is ready to put it all on the line. With the last of his savings, he’s going to start a Hot Rod shop every job could be his last and each flip needs to make money, or he’s done. Steve will chase down the cars and build them up for a millennial-aged client list that runs the gambit from Hollywood celebrities, music moguls to business tech titans. 

This won’t be some “made for TV” shop that ignores reality and puts $200,000 into a $40,000 car just for the cameras.  Nope – Steve is all about delivering REAL automotive dreams.  Got an old rundown 1973 Chevy C-10 that belonged to your dad?  Only got $30K?  How about drop in a LS7, some modern suspension, a cool 70s paint scheme and enough torque to tow a house. Welcome to a new school hot rod shop with old school real deal passion – this is FULLY TORQUED.

Horsepower & Torque

Steve’s got the passion, and he’s a pretty darn good hot rod mechanic too. But it would be almost impossible to run the shop, deal with the clients AND be the designer/fabricator/builder all at once! But guess what? … Steve is lucky enough to have a 60-year old uncle who just happens to be a hot rod legend! Enter Steve’s partner in crime…his uncle “Bird”. You see Bird is himself the nephew of hot rod royalty. Bird’s uncle was none other than Kenny Howard…aka VON DUTCH, one of the most famous hot rodders, designers, customizers and pin stripers of all time. Bird literally grew up on the dragstrips of SoCal and is an original hot rodder with real deal fabrication and build skills. Today, Bird’s own garage is littered with original Von Dutch bikes, vehicles, parts, accessories and collectible art. If Steve is going to make his shop world famous, then having Bird side-by-side with him in the garage turning the wrenches just might make it happen!
