This is a small portion of our workmanship over the years and is intended to show how one is limited only by their own imaginations, creativity and financial re$ources.
Rob Martel is a dual Licensed, journeyman Industrial Millwright and General Machinist with Inter-provincial qualifications who occasionally massages metal for automotive applications.
Many of our clientele have won numerous awards for Quality, including several People's Choice Awards and Best of Shows. Some of my customers have competed at Vintage races all across the continent including the Monterey Historics in California.
We have been called perfectionists by many clients which is flattering as we are proud to give them the quality they can not get elsewhere.
" Everybody claims to do what you do Rob, but you are the one who actually completes the project Correctly"

Unbelieveable that people would prefer this panel which was not at all Engineered or designed for the V8 model over an efficient and intelligent New Panel designed for a smooth air flow

NEW Panel Designed and Created by Rob Martel
But yet as intelligent as I Know the solution is. A Quirky Cosumer prefers the Un-developed bad flowing ORIGINAL abortion. Who would Figure.
It became Obvious to myself that i should remain in the innovative New car Market and enjoy my paycheques from Intelligent Engineers .
