Carolina Kustoms 6600 Northeast Columbia Boulevard, Portland, OR 97218

"This is a great place to get your ride customized."

"I drive a 2005 Silverado, had a blown head gasket and needed a new motor. I called around and got referred to Carolina Kustoms. I called the shop and talked to Lonnie. After talking, he made some calls and hooked me up with a brand new remanufactured motor. Another shop wanted more money for a pick-and-pull motor with 80,000 miles. Once the engine came in, they swapped the old one out within a couple days. I think I had to wait a couple weeks after calling to get my truck in, but after driving it around the last 2 months, it was well worth wait. Great work Lonnie and team, I'll be back for more work in the future. Enzo is a good pup too."

"After I talked to Lonnie about my not so easy project car (LS swap, air ride & disc brake conversion in an older uncommon car) I decided the wait to get into Carolina Kustoms was worth it. I wanted the job done correctly, the first time & felt they were the guys for the job & I was right. Lonnie & his staff are extremely knowledgeable, honest & straight forward. I appreciated that he communicated with me (sometimes daily) throughout the build, about parts lead times, build duration, issues, budget & general conversation about the build. He spent the time to make sure that the parts I provided were correct for the application & helped me source missing parts cost effectively. The work performed clearly demonstrated pride in work & attention to detail. The result was exactly as I desired, an old car that drives & performs like a modern car. If an issue came up, mine or his, he was IMMEDIATELY responsive & ALWAYS stood behind his work, no bs. If you have a project & your looking for someone who is straight forward, cares about quality, details, functionality, performance & will stand behind their work, Carolina Kustoms is for you."

"Lonnie and his crew have all been great. Especially Jake who even stopped to check on me when he saw me on the side of the road checking out my car from excitement after picking it up. I got in way over my head with a classic car I have been wanting for a long time. I thought I could do it myself and very quickly found out I needed some professional help. They did a complete SS dash swap with a full rewire on my Chevelle. They not only completed the job quickly, but took the time to ask about and then fix some of the other issues people caused by cutting corners. They have fixed a lot of the issues I have had with this car and have been wonderful to work with. I can’t say enough about these guys. Hard workers, incredibly knowledgeable, available, and very friendly. A thank you is not enough for how much I appreciate their help. If you need something done to your ride, this is the shop. They’re worth the wait."

"Although I didn't end up having the guys and CK work on my car because there were 4-6 months out and I wanted to enjoy it before summer. I did end up purchasing a bunch of parts from them. Great pricing and fast shipping.. some parts were hard to find and Lonnie took the time to locate them for me from a different company, even though he wouldn't make any money on them. He also took the time to help me figure out my rear end measurements as well. Great guys and I'm looking forward to them working my car soon."
