I’m a very excited to say we have delivered the symmetry we restored for Mark Fukuda and his Blastro van!! We spent the day with him and the van reinstalling it and getting everything setup. Let me say this was for me absolutely mind blowing to be working side by side with a legend and what I think is the most iconic timeless install (Blastro) ever built.
This van was built in 1993/4 by mark his brother and a co-worker. It has won many many awards along the way. It was sold several times over the years until marks Lil brother found it about 10 years ago and bought it for mark as a birthday gift! it took them roughly 8 months to original build and has been since a timeless install and to see it and work on it yesterday I can tell you it looks like it was built last week. Absolutely crazy how their work has stood the test of time. Although everything else had to be replaced or restored from the drivetrain to all the equipment where I come in! To adding air ride so this bad mama jamma sits on the ground and sets off the stance perfectly!
The last time this van played with all its original equipment was 15 plus years ago. It’s had several people try to get it operational but with no success. Mark contacted me almost a few years ago now with the hope I could help him get the amps and symmetry working again seeing over the years nobody could accomplish it. So we worked hard for many many months along with others to bring every aspect of this van back to life and I’m so very humbled and appreciative to be part of the restoration of this most iconic piece of history!
