I’m a scary movie fan. I admit I enjoy watching the shows that make me jump and cover my eyes. My heart races each time the medicine cabinet door closes and another image is reflected in that mirror. My husband doesn’t understand the attraction of that heart racing moment. I suppose what makes your heart race is different for everyone. Maybe it’s having your toes hanging on the edge of the plane before you jump. Maybe it’s receiving a text from that special person. Maybe it’s looking out on the audience before you begin your presentation. Whatever makes your heart race, it can be an exhilarating feeling for sure.
For Bryan Stone, the CEO of Classic Recreations in Flower Mound, it’s the rev of an engine and being behind the wheel of a classic muscle car. Classic Recreations recreates and restores high-performance cars and trucks. After the purchase of the company, positive refinement of its infrastructure and God’s guidance, Stone says he began seeing success by pairing enthusiasts and collectors with amazing muscle supercars and continuing the legacy of the Carroll Shelby craftsmanship and performance. Just looking at the pictures on the website is sure to start hearts racing for an appreciative audience.
Stone shares the core values of his company that keep hearts driven and moving in the right direction.
Faith-Driven - Believing in a higher power other than yourself is important.
Stewardship - Taking care of people and making connections with others makes a difference.
Quality Work - Expect nothing less.
Passion - In cars, in the company, in life.
Teamwork - Each member of the staff helps accomplish goals.
Integrity - Doing what’s right always.
In or Out - Staying committed to others, ourselves and our faith.
Stone has a poster in his office to remind him of these core values each day. So being a part of such a heart racing company, it only made sense to pair with the American Heart Association to help raise a goal of $1,000,000 in a three year initiative that launched in the summer of 2024. After a conversation with Jeff Sol, the president of the Shelby Cobra Association and the Chief of Staff of the AHA who is Sol’s wife, Stone says it only made sense to combine efforts and form a plan to support continued research to obliterate heart disease.
Classic Recreations is unveiling the AHA Life is Why Centennial Edition Carbon Fiber Shelby GT500CR to celebrate the 100th birthday of the AHA. There will be only ten of these supercars available and $100,000 from each sale will be donated to the Life is Why Campaign. Now that is something to get your heart pumping while keeping it healthy as well.
And when your heart is right, everything else just falls into place.
