Bio: Ive loved cars my whole life! After serving my country for 4 years, and becoming an accomplished VFW, I decided to move on from the ARMY in 1996. That same year I bought my first classic VW and restored it myself in my back yard. I stayed up learning and experimenting for days until I perfected the things I needed to know to make my car look perfect. After a couple of months driving this sweet ride around, I was offered a cash price for it without even having it up for sale! So what did I do? I sold it! That defining moment was the start of the sickness Ive now had all this time for customizing cars of all makes and models. Through the years Ive done a ton of cars,graced some well known mags,traveled the country and shook hands with a lot of great people! I now have a great wife Ashlie, who supports me in all that I create. Shortly after getting hitched I teamed up with an old friend Scott Higgs from RTA Customs in Tarpon Springs and we formed what we have today........VINTAGE CUSTOMS! Its a great life and im truly "living a dream".

Bio: 28 and married with two children, I started this journey with my first car at the age of 13 when my dad bought me a old beat up rusty 1973 VW Beetle! Just a kid with no money i started sanding and welding in parents garage which soon lead to my apprenticing at Car Classics. Learning from a old school body man he molded me into the old ways of the art, working on rods during the day and helping him with his Willy's at night. Over the years i moved into selling paint for P.P.G. full time, still custom painting in my garage on the side it got to the point to make the move and open my own body shop! R.T.A. Customs opened in 2006 in Tarpon Springs and stayed busy mainly working on VW's, finally teaming up with Chad Fisher of Oldskool Customs. In December of 2008 we moved into a new 4000 square foot shop in Clearwater with the name Vintage Customs, and this is where we are now!!!
