Complete collector-grade builds executed in-house, combining structural metal fabrication, concours-level paint, chassis and drivetrain integration, and final assembly.
Projects undertaken selectively to maintain quality and attention throughout every phase of the build.
Artistic Motor Works represents the evolution of that experience into a limited-production commission program focused on structural metal fabrication and concours-level paint for collector-grade vehicles.
From strip to the dip!
Here we have a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Indianapolis official pace car that will be getting dipped, metal worked, and painted.
This is a bone stock numbers matching build as requested. Stay tuned for the update!
Since the last time we posted this 1974 k5 blazer, it had just been painted House of Kolor brandy wine, Taylor did an amazing job laying this one down!
After paint, Fernando got the body finished with epoxy and texture above and underneath to seal up the car from harsh elements, he then took the paint to the next level with planking the paint out from 800 grit all the way to 5000 to maximize quality and clarity of the finish. Ken hung up all panels before moving to the assembly stage.
Once body and paint was completed, our mechanic/wiring specialist Nic finalized assembling the chassis to drop the body down and start wiring up all electrical components that accommodate the build. We make sure every detail in these vehicles are done with passion and care, it’s what makes these builds different
This ’55 truck came to Artistic Customs for us to finish the build, and we’re nearly there. The exhaust is complete; now we’re working through the final details and test drive before handing it back to its owner.
We’re looking forward to showing you the finished truck.

From preparation to paint, our C10 is moving into the next stage of the build.
The cab, doors, fenders and hood are now in color, following extensive preparation to ensure straight panels and a consistent finish. The bed is still in fabrication and will be completed before it receives paint and the truck moves into final assembly.
Next, we’ll finish the bed, paint the remaining components, reassemble the truck and complete the final details ahead of its debut at Dino’s Git Down this November.
Paint time! 🎨

Artistic Customs G20 wins “Raddest of Show” at the 2026 RADWOOD PNW
We are thrilled to share that our custom-painted Chevrolet G20 Van received the “Raddest of Show” award at Radwood PNW in Washington on July 18th.
RADWOOD celebrates the bold colors, unforgettable styling and automotive culture of the 1980’s-1990’s and this G20 Van fit the occasion perfectly.
Our team was commissioned to complete the vans exterior restoration and paint work. The finish features a rich House of Kolor Candy Brandywine complemented by carefully recreated vintage-style striping that preserves the vans original character while giving it a dramatically refreshed appearance.
Projects like this require far more than simply applying a new color. The body was carefully stripped, prepped and finished to create the depth and reflection expected from a premium candy paint system.
The original stripe design was then recreated with close attention to proportion, placement and period correct personality.
Seeing the van recognized at the RADWOOD PNW was especially rewarding because the award celebrates exactly what makes this project special: distinctive styling craftmanship, nostalgia and a vehicle that is impossible to over look.
We are grateful to the owner for trusting Artistic Customs with such a memorable project and proud of every team member whose work contributed to the finished result.
Congratulations to the owner and a well-deserved win!

Every step is crucial for each procedure to create a masterpiece
