At Nickles Customs, restoring cars isn't just a service, it's a calling.

Founded by James Nickles, a Greenville, SC native, our shop was born from a love of bringing cars from the past into the present.

From an early age James was fascinated with how things worked and often found himself in trouble tearing apart anything he could get his hands on. It was his father's collection of old non-running cars that truly sparked his passion. What began as a personal mission to revive those forgotten classics evolved into years of hands-on experience, craftsmanship, and passion.

After countless restorations done for the sheer joy of it, James realized his attention to detail and dedication to quality were more than a hobby - they were a missing standard in the restoration industry. That's when Nickles Customs was born.

Today we bring unmatched quality, authenticity, and care to every restoration and build. Whether you're looking to relive your childhood behind the wheel or preserve a piece of automotive history, we're here to restore your classic - not just how it was, but how it was always meant to be.
