Galpin Auto Sports

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Galpin Auto Sports (or GAS) is an automobile repair shop in Van Nuys, California that specializes in customizing cars specifically for the vehicles' owners. They also provide spare parts.

Galpin Auto Sports is the car garage featured on the USA version of MTV's Pimp My Ride. The show was moved from West Coast Customs to GAS in the 5th and 6th season. They also own a second-hand car shop. On site at the main garage is an extensive array of customized cars which can be bought direct from the garage.

GAS's work can also be seen on the new television show "Knight Rider". They were asked to create the star of the show, a new version of the 2008 Ford Mustang called the GT500KR. "GAS had one week to create the new KITT, and they pulled out all the stops. Six people worked full time to create the Mustang that would be sent over to Picture Car Warehouse as the father of all the KITT derivatives and stunt cars."
