Work Information

Got a Street Rod or Classic?

Let us customize an interior for you and turn your car into a show stopper!

We also install convertible tops, vinyl tops, factory replacement seat covers

and body panels, carpeting, headliners, etc. Also trucks, boats, cycles, etc.

If it's on the inside or top of a vehicle, WE DO IT!

20 years experience in the trade!

HOW WE OPERATE

We'll look at your car, show you sample materials, make some drawings of how it might look finished, and when we have a concept we both agree on, we'll get started gathering the materials.  We make each job pay for itself as we go along, so we'll take a 40-50% materials deposit.  When the job is completed to your satisfaction, we'll settle up.  The average price for a complete custom interior is $3,00 to $4,000.  Of course, leather is considerably more, and contingencies DO occasionally arise.  I'll bet you've already got a lot more invested in your car than you thought you would, right?

'34 Chevy custom street rod interior

It's a hot pink on the outside - we're doing it in a tasteful tweed with a touch of purple, pink and blue in the cloth. The interior has a diamond pattern, with vinyl buttons in a pink to match the exterior. The interior is trimmed in off-white vinyl and headliner. Look for Willy and his custom '34 at the shows!

'63 Jaguar Marque II

This metallic silver-blue beauty is going back original in black leather and wool carpet.

     '48 Ford Pick-up delivery day!

The photo above shows the speaker box covers and the area behind the seats prior to the seat installation.  Note how the door panel design continues onto the other body panels. The upper part of the door panel forms the bottom of a loop circling the window.  The dark brown swoops continue around the bottom of the interior and onto the front kick panels, with a dark brown stripe circling the midsection.

What's next?  Willie's '33 Chevy Coupe!

Biographical Information

Mike is a southern boy, but he's been spiffing up Yankee interiors in PA and NJ since '90.  Lisa has been helping Mike with his business for several years, and also moonlights as a database manager, computer software instructor, dog trainer, and amateur web site designer. Currently we share a farm in rural NE Pennsylvania with our good buddy Bob, a huge pound puppy named Buster (he can be seen in front of the ford truck above), a dainty German shepherd female named Stellar who considers it her personal responsibility to guard your car while it's in our care, a fat, lazy cat named Purretta, and a mouser named Panda Monium.

Personal Interests

When not dreaming up new ideas or working on customer interiors, Mike loves to watch old movies, read the Manchester Guardian, and kick back. Lisa is often found at nearby Beltzville Lake State Park, tromping through the woods with the dogs. We both like to go to car shows, and do so whenever we get the chance.
