August 3rd & 4th in Temecula, CA attend one of Gene’s Metal work shops. Gene is a master and I doubt that we need to explain what that means. Call Walt to get a seat at 951-375-7579. As always thanks very much for supporting and respecting Gene. He’s one of a kind. Have a good weekend Hot Rodders! #winfield #winfieldscustomshop #hotrods #mercs #choptop #americantradition

Get those t-shirts autographed and take a picture for the mantelpiece while you’re at it. Happy Hot Rodding this weekend! #winfieldscustomshop #genewinfield #winfieldfade #laroadstershow

Gene’s birthday! June 15 At @thehouseofmachines_la we’ll have Gene’s two race cars inside as well. There will be cake, photography and art on the walls, Gene will be there doing his thing.... turning 92! If you would like to create a piece of Winfield inspired art to display during the party or if you have a lovely shot of Gene that you’d like to send in to hang on the wall contact us via Direct Message and we’ll get it arranged. Unrelated: if you ordered a maniac shirt thank you! The response was overwhelming and we had to get some more shirts printed which we received today. We are still packing orders. Thanks very much for your support Gene was blown away. #winfield #genewinfield #customizing #houseofmachines #racecar #landspeed #bonneville

Gene’s a Maniac! We have 3 new t-shirts in stock. The Maniac shirt designed by our beloved @sicknimich is homage to the sixties Big Daddy monster shirts . The white t-shirt makes it a challenge: How dirty can it possibly get? The Jade Idol shirt is now a 2 color design with fountain print to simulate Gene’s fade paint job. Designed by @studio_669 . Last but not least East Coast Artie revamped the ol’ logo tee with some pinstriping & a jade idol inspired fountain print. Use coupon code MANIAC to take 10% off your entire order now through Sunday the 12th. The link to our store is in our bio. #winfieldscustomshop #genewinfield #fartco #sicknimich #studio669 #eastcoastartie #choptop #custom

Saturday night was the opening of the Hollywood Dream Machines exhibit at the @petersenmuseum A number of winfield cars are in the show including the SUX6000 from Robocop, the Everyman car from Bladerunner, the Piranha, and a Back to the future 2 police car. More notably the Reactor and Strip Star are featured. Both cars have multiple movie credits. At one time Gene had a fleet of 75 cars that he rented to the movie industry. He often drove taxis and police cars from the fleet to and from the shop. The Reactor and the Strip star are such unique parts of that fleet. They’re not just beat up cop cars or a fiberglass prop. They’re show cars with handmade aluminum bodies! The back tail section of the Reactor was made at the legendary California Metalshaping. The Strip Star had always been bound for the salt flats. With only a few passes under it’s belt it has lived a rather cushy life showing up in the occasional movie or at the occasional car show. I recommend within the next four months you visit them together at the Petersen Museum amongst some of their other silver screen companions. #winfieldscustomshop #genewinfield #winfieldfade #petersenmuseum #reactor #stripstar #hotrod #moviecars #bladerunner #backtothefuture #robocop #sux6000

Strip Star Saga... Many of you have visited the museum and have seen the Strip Star jammed inside the tiny space. What you might not know is that Gene DROVE the car in to it’s resting place. After some ether and a little time reflecting on Gene’s mind boggling creation from 1964, the 427 (a gift from @ford ) came to life. The G-man finessed the car through the kitchen with about 1” of clearance on either side of the car. Gene had prior experience driving delicately in commercials for goodyear where he drove over obstacles such as rows of fireman’s axes to demonstrate the quality of their tires. photos by @matchstick_customs #genewinfield #randomfacts #stripstar #winfieldfade #35mm #nikon #desertrats
