Somewhere in Redondo Beach, California is FAST CARS (formerly Tillack & Co), a shop named for its founder that specializes in keeping vintage special interest cars in tip-top shape. The shop is off the beaten path, and in a totally unsuspecting area where being in plain sight is a great way to hide and thwart curiosity.
Visiting the shop is an amazing situation, an eye opening event that reminds us how unique those early special interest cars really are. While he gravitates to Ferrari, the shop is often host to original Ford GTs, Jaguars of all sorts, Lotus, Lamborghini and more. It’s the kind of place so packed with exotics it makes the Toyota Camry outside look rare.
The shop has been around for decades and the building even longer still. This gives the whole scene a lovely sense of soul, a vibe that isn’t easily acquired, but rather achieved through years of time and minor adjustments. Take a tour below…
Tillack & Co. is actually Fast Cars now, and has been for years.
