At the owners request he asked that we not publish pictures of his car until it was ready for a show. So it leaves in the morning for Columbus so that's close enough, right?:lol: This is the second car to come out of a new shop in the Dallas TX area called RPL Customs (1 year this past month). The owners name is Roger Lynskey and he used to manager a shop in the area called Stoked Out Specialties. This car started in another shop in the Houston area so some of the choices are not normally what you would see for a car coming from Roger but I think it's still a very nice car. The interior is the most eye appealing (IMO) and Roger really did a nice job. Anyway, it's running on TCI components front and rear, ZZ4 with Barry Grant 6-shooter, 5 speed, Intro Wheels, cut down front and rear bumpers and a couple hundred other things but I need to get into bed for the long drive to Ohio in the morning. Enjoy.....


I enlarged the pictures so you should be able to click on them and open them up in a larger format. We had a great time in Columbus and car did very well in the sea of VERY nice cars. We got a Pro's Pick and the Intro Pick and thought the weekend couldn't get any better and we were right. Saturday afternoon while the car was parked in the grass in front of the motorhome the guy across from us backed into the rear bumper. The back end of the car is back apart and the bumper is back on it's way to Sherm's to be repaired. It could have been worse and gotten into the paint and that would have lead to us bailing the owner out of jail after the fact!

RPL Customs did the interior and door panels, ISS seats were used but the foam was modified.

You know when you can see under the dash and it is as detailed as everything else, that it is a special car. That looks even better than what I had imagined when I heard about it.

Hats off to Roger, great build.

Nice car, but it's gonna be hard to fetch $225k.

A fact the owner is having much trouble stomaching... and I don't blame him.

These are beautiful one-off creations, but not one off Ferraris or Duesenbergs.
