The real rides story

What started as a one-man panel and paint shop in a small block garage has grown into one of New Zealand's leading muscle car restoration and custom build workshops.

Along the way, Real Rides has earned multiple industry awards, including the internationally recognised Mothers Shine Award.

After 20 years in business, we've built our reputation on honest advice, quality craftsmanship and a commitment to continually evolving with the industry.
