Join us at SILO's next Pitz Stop as John Pitz interviews Les Acree and renowned custom car builder Jeff Hayes. Hayes' latest creations—a 1963 Split-Window Coupe and a 1967 Convertible Corvette—stunned audiences at the 2025 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction, selling for a combined $1.75 million. Known for his show-stopping Resto-Mods that blend vintage Corvette aesthetics with cutting-edge engineering, Hayes continues to set records and redefine excellence in custom car design. The event also celebrates an exclusive fine art collaboration with Ryan Smith, capturing the legacy of Hayes’ Corvettes against the dramatic Arizona landscape. Don’t miss this chance to hear the story behind these iconic builds and their place in automotive history.
There will be plenty of delicious food available for purchase — starting at 5:30pm. And for those who want to indulge in some drinks, we will have a cash bar stocked with a wide variety of beverages.
