Ringbrothers Teases Three Projects Heading to Vegas
Each year at the SEMA Show, you can always expect something amazing from the folks at Ringbrothers.
This year will be no different, with the builders out of Wisconsin looking to deliver three projects in Las Vegas: a 1972 AMC Javelin, a 1969 Dodge Charger, and a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup. Like past Ringbrothers’ SEMA projects, expect to see meticulous paint and bodywork combined with high-horsepower engine setups.
The 1972 AMC Javelin AMX will make its debut in the Prestone booth and it’s the first Ringbrothers AMC build completely bodied in carbon fiber, from its hood and fenders to the grille and valence. Sitting in the engine bay is a Wegner Motorsports 6.2-liter Hellcat engine, packing over 1,000 horsepower thanks to a Whipple 4.5-liter supercharger. It will sport HRE wheels and Baer brakes on all four corners along with a Jalop Gold paint job.

The second teased project is a 1969 Dodge Charger and it’s the first Mopar project Ringbrothers has ever built. According to the builders, it took over 4,700 hours of custom bodywork to complete and it will bow in the BASF booth, so expect a stunning “Green on the Other Side” paint job. The chassis of the Charger has been stretched three inches while the body has been shortened by two inches, while a Wegner Motorsports 6.4-liter HEMI V8 resides under the hood.
The third project will actually reside in the Ringbrothers booth and it’s a 1956 Ford F-100 nicknamed “Clem 101.” The builders have swapped in a Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine under the hood of the pickup, which also features a custom-built box frame, widened fenders, HRE wheels with Nitto tires, and a custom “Speedy P Green” exterior shade.
“These three cars are so different from the cars we’ve brought to SEMA before,” said Ringbrothers co-founder Jim Ring. “The Charger is the first Mopar we’ve ever custom built and is also not something we usually do. The customer wanted it to look restored, but the entire body was slightly modified. We are also excited about debuting a truck at the show for the first time – this truck was a personal project for us and we can’t wait to pull the cover off it in our booth.”

The Ring Brothers are in the top two or three best customisers in the business whether it's engineering or body and technology
My first car was a Javelin. It was a beat up crappy rustbucket, but I did like the look of it.
