The History
Built By Hand.
Told In Machines.
68 Reserve began as a private workshop in the U.A.E. — a Chevy Nova SS on a built LS motor, a Skyline R31 brought in from Australia. Before there was a floor, there were the builds.
So the history of the house is told in its machines: cars, motorcycles and commissions, each one taken apart, rethought and rebuilt by hand. This is the record, in the order they left the workshop.
