Summer’s just around the corner – ready to get moving on that project car or truck? Start by getting blasted at North Texas Customs! If you’re the do-it-yourself type, media blasting is a quick and affordable first step that, when followed with an epoxy coat, will halt corrosion and let you take your time for the next stage of repair. Prefer to hand it over to the pros for step two? Blasting will reveal what work needs to be done and allow us to formulate a plan to meet your goals. There’s no time like the present: the longer your rusty metal sits, the worse it will progress – blast it and stop it today! Contact us or learn more on our media blasting page.

Nostalgia Lives in a ’56 Pontiac
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009Honoring childhood memories of his family car, the owner of this 1956 Pontiac Catalina came to us to help bring it back to life. To meet his request for true authenticity, we used only original and new old stock (NOS) parts, fabricating any pieces that were not available.
This car got the full treatment: a frame-off restoration complete to stock, including media blasting down to bare steel, a rarely rebuilt 316 V-8 engine and Jetaway/Hydra-Matic automatic transmission, a large assortment of new and re-chromed trim, hand-fabricated floors, and an interior hand-stitched from original factory stock material tracked down for the project. We finished out with a classy two-tone Terragon Green and cool white paint scheme.
Seldom seen in common restorations, this model’s a definite head-turner and is sure to make many reminisce when she cruises by.

Special thanks to Dee’s Trim and North Texas Quality Chrome.

Topped off with a shiny Tweety Yellow coat, she’s ready for summer.
Jared’s Red Hot 67 Camaro
Saturday, November 29th, 2008Jared knew exactly what he wanted for his 1967 Camaro, and we were happy to help make it happen. Requiring extensive panel replacement, complete suspension, crate 427 block, and tailored interior, we finished out the project with white hugger stripes on a unique custom red. Add all new chrome and wheels, and this one’s a definite head turner. Thanks to Firewheel Classics for their extensive parts selection, this car is showroom new.
