Every Project Starts with Your Vision

Frame-off restorations, hot rods, muscle cars & custom performance builds

Taylor Motorsports Inc. is Western North Carolina's destination shop for custom car builds and classic restorations. For over 30 years, we've been turning ideas into finished vehicles — from frame-off muscle car restorations that recapture every detail of the original to ground-up hot rod builds that make a statement on any road or show floor.

What makes us the right shop for your custom project? We handle everything in-house. Fabrication, bodywork, paint, interiors, performance tuning, engine rebuilds — it all stays under one roof and under our direct supervision. That means your project doesn't get handed off to three different shops. It stays with our team from concept to completion.

We work on vintage muscle cars, classic trucks, hot rods, pro-touring builds, and modern performance vehicles. Whether you're looking to restore a numbers-matching classic to factory spec, build a sleeper that terrifies everyone at the track, or craft something completely one-of-a-kind — we have the skill and passion to execute your vision.

Custom build clients come to us from across North Carolina and beyond — from Asheville, Charlotte, and Raleigh to Tennessee, Georgia, and South Carolina. Our reputation in the WNC area speaks for itself, and the work we produce speaks even louder.

Why WNC Car Enthusiasts Choose Taylor Motorsports for Custom Builds

Everything In-House

Fabrication, bodywork, paint, engine work, interiors, tuning — we do it all ourselves. Your build never gets handed to a stranger. One team, one standard of quality, one accountability.

30+ Years of Craftsmanship

We've been building and restoring vehicles in Western NC since 1990. That's over three decades of hands-on experience with classics, muscle cars, hot rods, and performance builds. We know what we're doing.

Your Vision, Executed

Every build starts with a conversation about what you want. We listen, we advise, we plan — then we build. We don't push you toward a cookie-cutter result. If you can imagine it, we can build it.

Builders Who Care About Cars

We're not a paint-and-body-only shop or a tuner shop — we're car people who understand the full picture. That passion and depth of knowledge shows in every project we complete.
