It’s likely safe to assume that if you frequent StanceWorks, you’re at least loosely caught up with 2021’s K-Swap Ferrari project. With a focus on time attack racing, we’ve put an emphasis on shedding pounds, and one major avenue for that is the building of a custom interior using lightweight, minimalistic products.
In Episode 2 of In the Shop with StanceWorks, Mike takes us “From Then to Now” with a brief look back at the history of his E36 and its current condition as its prepped for a complete build overhaul. Mike follows with a look into his newest project car, an ’87 E30 M3 race car, and what exactly makes it so special. You know the drill: lights down, sound up.

8 Days Later – Cleaning Out the FJ60 with Turtle Wax
Mike BurroughsThere’s no better way to enjoy a vehicle you’ve built with your own hands than to use it, or perhaps in this case, abuse it. Earlier this spring, Emily and I, along with our dog Chloe, set out for the deserts of Utah, where we spent eight days camping inside our 1985 Toyota Land Cruiser. While the trip itself offered a slew of memories we’ll never forget, that wasn’t the only thing we were left with.
