Troy Trepanier and his '36 Ford Roadster secured the overall win for the 2025 SEMA Battle of the Builders presented by Mothers Polish competition. The immaculately built vehicle competed in the Hot Rod/Hot Rod Truck category and was among the following Top Four finalists:
- Tim Franklin -- '60 Porsche Custom 356
- Thomas Dickerson -- '67 Chevrolet C10
- Ron Jones -- '73 Volkswagen Thing
This year's win marks the second time Battle of the Builders crowned Trepanier as a winner, having won the industry-favorite competition in 2017 with his '29 Ford Model A Tudor sedan. The Battle of the Builders presented by Mothers Polish sees the top 12 competitors become judges themselves, helping to narrow down the field of entrants until only one remains.
