About Us

Ross Stomp entered the restoration and body work industry in 1982. After gaining experience while managing several body shops, he decided to go out on his own and started what has now become Ross Customs in 1996. Ross Customs was created with a focus on Hot Rods; specializing in custom race and street-rod chassis and body work (including a ’57 Thunderbird that was used as part of the ad campaign for the new Ford Thunderbird).

Ross Customs is a full-featured collision repair shop meeting I-CAR certification requirements.

  • We handle all levels of restoration, from simple repaints to complete frame-off makeovers.
  • We also create and install custom headers and exhaust.

1997 – Purchased Jerry Hass’s Pro stock Monte Carlo and converted it to pro street. It was then campaigned in Hot Rod’s Fastest Street Car Shoot-Out.
