And if you see us at a show, we might just give you one!
12 Steps to Chrome-Coated Clarity
Featuring your official logo at the top—bold and centered
🔧 Step 1: Admit It
We admitted we were powerless over cars—and our garages, bank accounts, and spare time had become unmanageable.
🚦 Step 2: Tune Into Something Greater
Came to believe that a greater horsepower (and maybe a greater purpose) could restore us to sanity.
📘 Step 3: Surrender to the Manual
Made a decision to turn our will, our wallets, and our wrenches over to the wisdom of the Car Gods (and the occasional mechanic named Pete).
🧰 Step 4: Inventory the Garage (and Soul)
Made a searching and fearless inventory of our car collection, parts bin, and late-night eBay purchases.
💬 Step 5: Own the Oil Leaks
Admitted to ourselves, to another enthusiast, and to our long-suffering partners the exact nature of our mechanical obsessions.
🌱 Step 6: Let Go of the Rust
Were entirely ready to have chrome replace corrosion—and maybe some personal bad habits, too.
🧭 Step 7: Ask for an Overhaul
Humbly asked others (and the alignment specialist) to help us straighten our frames—literally and metaphorically.
📇 Step 8: Make a List of Those We Burned Out
Made a list of all the people we ignored during builds, weekends away, and show prep—and became willing to make amends.
🛣️ Step 9: Drive Toward Repair
Made amends wherever possible—except when doing so would cause emotional breakdowns or insurance claims.
🪞 Step 10: Keep Polishing Our Character
Continued to take garage and personal inventory—and when we were out of line, backed up and tried again.
🛤️ Step 11: Align With Purpose
Sought through quiet rides and reflection to improve our connection with creativity, community, and carburetors.
🎉 Step 12: Share the Joyride
Having had a spiritual ignition as the result of these steps, we tried to carry the message to other gearheads—and practice these principles at every cruise night, burnout box, and backyard wrench session.
🧡 Hang it. Share it. Live it.
