Vintage Restoration comes with 30+ years of mechanical and automotive experience. Tony Merk has 20 years of general auto repair experience, 10 of which he owned his own repair business in the Bay Area of California. He then came to North Carolina and entered the racing industry of NASCAR. He worked his way up to being lead mechanic and shop foreman. It was then time to go back to running his own business and doing what he loves, which is working on early classics, the cars he cut his teeth on and what he knows best.
