Classic Car Restoration

After moving to Arizona and getting my family settled I began to realize the incredible amount of old / classic car and Airstream Trailers were to be found with minimal and usually no rust or duration. As a young man I had spent over 20 years involved in several car clubs and car associations. I was privileged to work and shared experiences and enjoyment with club members in each of the car clubs and road racing world thru out the United States and Europe.


I started restoring vehicles and airstream trailers in 2010 and grew with experience and dedication to transforming what once was neglected and waste to many into custom and exciting new versions of what was once yesterday but refined with today's designs, colors and technology.


My hobby of restoration and car enthusiasm has continued to be a valued part of my life and I enjoy spending time and patience with my hobby when times allows and quality, history and memories can be united.
