    Steve Schenko, creator of 1-of-1 Bespoke Art, is a Sydney-based art director creating stunning bespoke artworks for car enthusiasts with an eye for design. His minimalist motoring masterpieces are held within, along with an exclusive offer for the Motorsport Retro family.
    When Steve finally pulled the trigger on his very own classic Porsche, the 911’s classic lines inspired him to create a minimalist artwork featuring the car. This would be the first 1-of-1 print.

    Later a good friend was turning 50, so Steve made an artwork of his 911 GT3 as a gift. Upon receiving the gift his friend exclaimed “You’ve got to start selling these!”, and so Steve has!
    “I’ve conceded that it’s never going to be a big money maker, which to be honest is OK. The upside is that I’m talking on a daily basis to like minded people, it’s kind of like heading to a Cars and Coffee meet every day.”
    He creates high-end bespoke design pieces for like-minded car enthusiasts with an eye for design. Each work is made to order and drawn from scratch.

    Dramatic moment a £4million 1955 Mercedes crashed into a £1million 1959 Jaguar during race at Goodwood track

    Check out these incredible images of the moment Jochen Mass, driving a Mercedes SLS 300 ‘Porter Special’, worth an estimated £4million, crashes into the back of Tony Wood’s Lister-Jaguar Knobbly at Goodwood.
    There has been the usual differences of opinion on who is to blame. The accident occurred during qualifying as Wood was entering the pits. Thankfully neither driver was hurt.
    A spokesman for Goodwood Motorsport said “Unfortunately, neither car was able to be repaired in time to take part in Sunday’s race and neither driver was able to take any further part in the on-track action.”

    The Mercedes is unique, having been created by a US mechanic in the 1950s, and it is feared it will be difficult to restore to its former glory
    The Jaguar fared equally badly in the accident and was left with the rear badly twisted into the air and damage to both sets of wheels

    The Cobra-Blown, Lexus V8 Swapped "No Style" '75 Corolla

    Mark Still is a man of limited sports car experience, but is long on fabrication skill. So when he decided he wanted to build a hillclimbing monster, he started with what he was into: old Corollas. Now, his 1975 Coupe has the V8 and subframe from a Lexus SC400, an Eaton M112 Supercharger from a Mustang Cobra, a T56 6-speed gearbox, and everything else is completely custom. We love it.
