Even as a kid, when anyone asked Zachary what he wanted to be when he grew up, he would answer “a hot rod builder”. Zachary left school in 6th form as the class he stayed at school for, automotive studies, was so basic he could have passed with an A+ when he was ten. So Zachary enrolled in the New Zealand Welding School, completing a basic and then advanced course in welding and fabrication. Zachary has been involved with the builds of a number of cars, from classic Chevs to T-buckets. His skills and work are broad, from rust repairs to auto electrical, and mechanical to upholstery. Zachary is married to Zoe.
Carol was born and bred on Auckland's North Shore. She worked as a cartographer (mapmaker) for the Royal NZ Navy in Auckland and then for Land Information NZ in Wellington. Carol started working with KRC in 2013 and has gone from assisting with the Motor Trimming / Upholstery side of the business to being in charge of the Upholstery area. She also is our Office Manager and the friendly face of Kohls.
