INSANE 1970 Road Runner “Haraka” SEMA 2025 Reveal

Steve Strope of Pure Vision Designs, the man behind some of the most iconic Pro-Touring Mopars ever built, has once again redefined the classic muscle car with his latest masterpiece: the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner he calls “Haraka.” Debuting at SEMA 2025, Haraka (a name that means “motion” or “movement”) has been meticulously crafted from bumper to bumper, telling a cohesive story of high-end fashion, precision timekeeping, and raw, classic power.

We captured a look at this groundbreaking build with Steve himself, showcasing Strope’s legendary attention to detail. Underneath, Haraka is thoroughly modern: it rides on Heidts’ PRO-G Independent Suspension, stops with Wilwood brakes, and features a crisp Tremec TKX 5-speed. Power comes from a classic Chrysler 440 V8, updated with MoTeC EFI. The true artistry is inside. The cabin centers on a stunning, custom timepiece-inspired instrument cluster. Even the 18-way adjustable Porsche Panamera seats are wrapped in custom leather with an intricate Victorian design. Dive into our video for an exclusive look at the custom Inkwell Violet paint and every other flawless detail.

 

 

American Muscle Meets British Excellence: RingBrothers’ 800HP Aston Martin SEMA 2025

The Ringbrothers are set to unveil two highly anticipated custom builds for the 2025 SEMA Show, each representing a distinct vision of performance and craftsmanship. The first, “OCTAVIA,” began as a 1971 Aston Martin DBS and represents an ambitious attempt to redefine the concept of an English muscle car. The build required over 12,000 combined hours of engineering and craftsmanship, resulting in bespoke carbon-fiber bodywork that significantly widens the car, 10 inches in the rear and 8 inches at the front. Powering the Aston Martin is an 805-horsepower supercharged V8 engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox, with every facet of the car tailored with bespoke components.

 

 

1500HP “DraKon” Firebird Is The Wildest ProTouring Build at SEMA 2025

Originally owned in high school as a first car, this Firebird was completely reborn into a purpose-built race and show car that merges history with extreme performance. Under the hood sits a Tom Nelson Racing Engine pushing 1,400–1,500 horsepower, paired with a Speedtech Performance chassis, rear suspension with air-over-coilover setup, launch control, and ABS braking for precision and control. Built in collaboration with Nostalgia Hot Rods, “DraKon” blends cutting-edge lighting technology from Dapper Lighting with ProTouring performance and next-level fabrication. DraKon is in a class of its own.

 

 

1968 Hellcat-Powered Dodge Charger “Violent” Debuts at SEMA Show 2025

SEMA’s where the wildest builds in the world come to life – RestoMods, classics, hot rods, trucks, 4x4s, you name it. This year, Dapper Lighting and Dustin Hacker of Nostalgia HotRods stole the spotlight on day one with their Hellcat-powered ’68 Dodge Charger, dubbed “Violent.” Chris Esparza and Dustin Hacker dive deep into the craftsmanship, power, and vision that brought this build to life.

 

After taking you behind the velvet ropes and into the SEMA show with us, we hope you enjoyed seeing the incredible RestoMod builds and meeting the people who make the aftermarket industry’s biggest event happen!
