About Percival Customs & Fabrication
Our team ensures passion meets precision while restoring pre-1975 classic cars to their former glory with expert craftsmanship and bespoke fabrication solutions.
Percival Customs & Fabrication is a father-and-son team that took its passion for restoring pre-1975 classic cars and turned it into a business.
Wayne has been involved with restoration from a young age; he learned from his Father and Grandfather about classic tractors and how to restore them to their original condition. Wayne and Houston rebuilt a 1927 John Deere D that Wayne’s grandfather found, and it was sold and given to Jay Leno as part of his tractor collection. This leads to his love for the classics. In high school, Wayne began working in the automotive industry and got into welding and fabricating. The two things went hand in hand and made him great at what he did.
Houston followed in the family’s footsteps, being around classic tractors before he could walk. He then learned to drive and repair them from a very early age. That turned into him working on cars and fabricating from age 10. Houston attended school for automotive mechanics, which led him to a job in production building boom trucks. From there, he joined a local business doing specialty fabrication, all while building and working on pre-1975 classic cars on the side.

Jay Leno
It’s a Saturday morning and my wife’s phone rings. The caller ID says Jay Leno! We were invited to see his collect of amazing cars, however the main reason was to show him how to start the 1927 John Deere D we restored. While Jay was filming a show, we got to see his collection, have lunch with him and his crew and just hangout for the day. Needless to say, meeting Jay Leno was huge for the Percival’s!
