One member here had his car sold a few months back and now it is for sale at 3 times the cost with Rocky Auto's stickers all over it and claimed to build it. I guess after the they were called out on it, SpeedHunters came back and said the owner mentioned it was bought and being resold.

 

Here is the SpeedHunters link:

I can't read their site but some of the cars I know came from here are in articles in Japan with Rocky Auto all over them. I know we can't do anything about it besides discuss it really but after seeing the video of their shop and their work it made a lot of us thing they were turning out these great cars....lies!

Clive,

 

I can go back even further on the yellow car !!! Several years ago at the  Motorsport Auto show in Cailfornia that I went to the car was red then !!! Rocky Auto and Common Snapper are two (shops) internet websites I look at from time to time to see what they are building. The domestic exporting has been going on for a while with hot-rods and low-riders. But, to make the claim of building ???? This will be interesting to see as time pass.

You know Im not surprised after the story I heard about a 432Z that was bought at a very well respected place in Japan. I only thought clones were a part of the Muscle car american iron classics, NOPE, Honor is dead in japan and it's the land of Potato and Rap music now.

Honor is dead in Japan because one shop may not be on the up and up? Let me tell you last time I was there honor was very much alive. Much more so then here I might add, they can't hold a candle to the underhanded practices of shops stateside. 

Owning nice cars here is tough, Clive, Will, Joe etc.. make it look easy haha. I grit my teeth every time I see a pothole too late to avoid. I hit one today while driving towards the setting sun that popped my hood.
