Welcome to the first weekly News Blog for Auto Kings.
I will run this blog on a weekly basis and give insight into the Auto Kings world and all its happenings :) That being said the last few weeks have been insane and it's hard to pick a place to start.
I'll have to start writing things down through the week so we don't miss anything, but for now let's just wing it.

Firstly.
The Auto Kings Forum.
I finally found a platform I like, good enough to run the Auto Kings Automotive Enthusiasts Forum on. Shit that's a mouth full if anyone has a better name for it let us know. The forum has plenty of bells and whistles for us all to enjoy, including an easy Facebook login. It allows you to make your own profile and you can smash as many pics you like in your own personal gallery. It even has an event calendar we call all update and set reminders so we don't forget. I hope eventually everyone can jump in and talk the torque with many car minded enthusiast and build a strong kick arse AK community. As you can imagine though launching a forum is hard and I am currently going insane, considering I'm pretty much the only one in there talking to my self hahaha. what was that? shh. If you would like to keep me company please join me. the button below will open a new window, so if I have your attention you can still read on.
New To The Family
We introduce a few new businesses to the Auto Kings Family this week, which is great news. As some of you may know, I run the Auto Kings Business Directory like a finely tuned military operation. We only accept the best performers in Australia and will never sell out to the masses and believe me, we had plenty of duds apply these past few weeks. I'll give a quick run down on the ones who made it, but you can follow links to their pages to find out more and start stalking their progress on Facebook.
All Automotive Solutions
mmm I cut the cars out here beautifully
Operating in Campbellfield, VIC we came across Kane from All Automotive Solutions. This lad is an all round performer, cares for his customers, puts massive effort in to his work and runs a straight forward, no cut-corners operation. AAS is growing at a wonderful pace and is now moving into smash repairs. We are 100% confident All Automotive Solutions will kill it in the industry as there is nothing this shop can't handle. If you're in Campbellfield, we recommend you drop past and stir them up.
Skilly's Tyre and Auto
Markus at Skilly's Tyre and Auto is like the pirate captain of the tyre world, one of our favorite characters for sure. You're guaranteed to have a good laugh with this bloke, but most importantly he runs a tight practice and is extremely dedicated to his work. Skilly's, being in Heathcote, provide a lot of tyres to the Drag Racing scene. He is also an avid 4WD enthusiast and loves to get out there himself and test his workmanship to the fullest. For all tyres and servicing needs in Heathcote, get in there.
Gassol Gasket Solutions
If you haven't met John at Gasket Solutions, it's definitely time. For 30 years, I said 30 right? Well for 30 years and still loving it, John has been custom manufacturing head gaskets for the automotive industry and has a client base that spans worldwide. A true legend in the game if you are needing a gasket that can't be bought of the shelf John is your man. He has the skills and the know how to make it happen. As he told me, he is getting a bit long in the tooth so you won't see him all that much on social media but certainly worth giving a call or dropping past next time you're in Brisvegas.
Auto Kings Clothing
"Only those who dare to fail greatly, will ever achieve greatness."
I'm pretty sure it was JFK who said that and all my life, I've lived by it. That's pretty much how Auto Kings started, it goes into more depth than that but maybe another blog some other time. Anyway promoting only the best businesses I needed the best clothing and merch for Auto Kings crew to represent, so I went on the hunt all around Australia for a clothing manufacturer that could deliver the quality we wanted in our own brand and at a price that allows us to compete with the current markets. Unfortunately this didn't happen and we had to widen our search. The good news being we didn't end up in china, so that's a bonus. However we did have to invest a lot of money into a company I had no real way of throttling if they stuffed up and even knowing if they could really deliver on what they promised. I researched heavily before making the jump and was about 80% confident in my choice, I can tell you waiting 6-8 weeks for something the Auto Kings brand and good name depends on is nerve racking stuff. You can imagine my absolute delight when the first line came in on the goods better than I could have ever thought possible. The factory I had chosen are true champions, going above and beyond the standards we put before them. If they were in the automotive game they'd be listed in our directory for sure. The satisfaction of seeing the AK logo on the tag of its own clothing line almost brought a tear to the eye, a huge credit goes to Jay and Carlie Bloss from GEMWAR & Dazzling Decals for jumping in on the first of our Drivers range. There is already a lot more in development which I will update as we go. If you want any custom designed kick arse clothing made at comp crushing prices you can have a gander by clicking the button below.

Designs
Designs everywhere, one of the major parts involved here at Auto Kings is design work and website development for many of the AK Family.
Impress Engineering Website
Working with Danny from Impress Engineering, we launched IMPRESS247.com.au Danny having one impressive (pun) list of retail awesomeness it was time to make it available anywhere in OZ. We still have more in progress for this website and many more products to add, in the mean time check it out and if you need anything that may not be listed give Danny a call, besides Engineering services he retails and fits 247 Performance hose & fittings, Haltech, After Market Industries and more.
White Letter Tyres
Working with Bros R Motorsports and Racing we helped Leon launch a new division of his business White Letter Tyres Australia, and I'm like hook me up. You can now have anything you want written on your wheels and they look mad as hell. Auto Kings Promotions around me wheels.. Yes Please!!!
We hope our new logo design for WLT works a treat and gets everyone using this awesome product. This is basically how I made the logo.

Tuff4L Hoody
Currently running through the Process we have the TUFF4L hoody. Also working on an optiion to be available to the public, this is going to be one mad hoody for the Ford fans. Hit up the Tuff4l Facebook Page Here
Fathers Day Special @ Skilly's
We handle a lot of Facebook post designs. This one for Skilly's gives you the chance to test the old fella's skills at Calder. The V8 race experience makes for an awesome day.
New Logo for Reflection Detailing & Coatings
We whipped up this bad boy for Reflection Detailing and Coatings, Canberra's most prestigious auto detailing service. It's a pleasure to have them grace our pages.
MDT Race Engines & Auto
Another Logo we smashed out for MDT based on an upcoming project. We should have more of a follow up on this next week so stay tuned.
The Picture I used to make the MDT logo
That about sums it up for the week. I've most likely missed a bunch of stuff as the work book is crammed with jobs, but ain't nobody want to read the one blog forever. In summary if you get the chance jump into the AK Forum so I'm not a loner and let us know what you have happening. If you're the operator of a killer automotive business, you should be on this site.
So many good things in progress for Auto Kings and all the Kings men (you), so I will be back at it next week to update everyone.
The Auto Scene in Australia is the best in the world.
Legends each and every one of ya!
