As we turn the corner past Thanksgiving and on to Christmas, I felt it was time to share some good thoughts. I am so grateful for my fantastic employees who are also my friends. Kelly, Pete and Sean are an important part of Pure Vision and each play a roll in the shop’s success. I am thankful for terrific customers like Robert (owner of the 515 GTB) who had us build such a beautiful car. I am thankful for my awesome paint & body shop Gold Coast Custom Inc, and my incredible interior shop Eric Thorsen Custom Upholstery. Thanks for making my designs look so stellar guys!
I am very grateful to all the media that has been so supportive of Pure Vision. Thanks go out to Hot Rod, Mopar Muscle, Hemming’s Muscle Machines, Hot Rod TV, V8TV, Velocity TV and of course Hub Garage and Top Shops!
I am so blessed with such a wonderful family. I have a gorgeous, creative, incredibly supportive wife, Allyson. I have a beautiful, crazy, happy daughter Camber who drives me insane, but gives me so much joy. My stepson Seth is growing up to be a polite and focused young man. Seth deserves large congratulations for achieving his 2nd degree black belt in the martial arts. I am very proud of him!
Speaking of being proud, Allyson’s company Girlie Gear is now in the showrooms of the California Car Cover Co. and at the NHRA Museum showroom! Wow, how awesome is that? Here is a shot of Allyson next to her new display at Cal Car Cover. Congratulations again Hon! I am so proud of you and love you.

Very cool Steve, we enjoy watching your designs come to life! I admit I was biting my nails waiting impatiently for the last episode of the 515 GTB to debut on the Hub, excellent work!
Big congrats to your wife Allyson! I wish her nothing but sweet success! It’s nice to see there’s something for us girls in this hobby! :)
