The machine that SMTCL will be providing is a VMC2100B Vertical Machining Center, which will allow West Coast Customs to create customized wheels and body parts without going to an outside source. This partnership will also allow SMTCL customers to receive their own West Coast Custom Edition of a VMC2100B. “We’re excited to be able to work with SMTCL and can’t wait to see what we are capable of by using this great machine,” explains Friedlinghaus.
