With a strong desire to customize my own vehicles and faced with the challenge of finding replacement parts, I began manufacturing my components at the aerospace-certified machine shop where I was employed. This shop specialized in high-volume production, making it impractical to create single parts. As a result, I had to produce parts in bulk. Initially, we started with the production of turn signal levers designed specifically for Chevy LUV pickups. These levers are essential for every Chevy LUV, as the original ones are all deteriorated and replacements were not previously available.

 

Building on this success, we transitioned to creating interior knobs that not only met high standards but also had a universal fit, suitable for a wide range of vehicles.

 

Soon after I began developing other parts, formed partnerships with other shops such as Fields Custom Manufacturing and Northwest Industrial Fabrication, and I incorporated some 3D printers into my own garage.

 

My goal is to procure the highest quality parts for my own trucks. Given the constraints of production, these high-quality parts are now accessible to others as well.

 

I look forward to providing support to the enthusiasts of 70s-era minitrucks, offering them top-notch parts that were previously difficult to find.
