Grease Girl started when Kristin bought a 1955 Studebaker Champion with intentions of making it her daily driver in traffic-laden Los Angeles. Drawn to classic cars because of their styling, Kristin also loved that they were more mechanically accessible than modern cars. Although she had never as much as changed her own oil, Kristin’s intentions were to learn how to do all the mechanical work on her “Stude”. That journey is where Grease Girl began. It wasn’t until Kristin had worked to get her Stude on the road, then drove across the desert to attend her first car show (as a car owner) at Viva Las Vegas that she realized “Where are all the ladies at?!” In hopes that sharing her own journey would help to recruit more women and beginners to the garage, Kristin launched Grease Girl. Looking around the automotive industry now, there are so many positive things going on within it. But Kristin still hopes to run into fellow women car hobbyists more often then she does. So stick around and join in on this greasy adventure! Subscribe to the Grease Girl Newsletter!
