Stylish Creation Approximately eight years ago, John Rizzotto of North Babylon, New York got bit by the customizing bug. After briefly working on a 1974 Barracuda, John hit a minitruck and import show and immediately became hooked. With the help of his father, who has been restoring cars since he was kid, John picked up a 1999 Honda Prelude and went to work building one of the most recognizable imports to grace the east coast.
