So excited about this event

ToyMakerz Weekend Warriors Car Show

Not every cool car is a six-figure show car.
David Ankin, owner of ToyMakerz, is looking for the cars that reflect the personality of their owners. Rat rods, street rods, hot rods, race cars, lifted trucks, muscle cars, modified daily drivers, oddballs, misfits, and everything in between.

This isn’t a concours event or a trailer queen competition. It’s a celebration of real enthusiasts, real builds, and real passion.

The ToyMakerz crew will personally judge the entries and select their favorites based on creativity, craftsmanship, originality, and overall cool factor. Participants will also have the opportunity to meet David Ankin and the ToyMakerz team.
