Tom Van Steyn and Jeff Gargiulo are the
co-owners of Full Circle Restorations LLC off
Highway 88 in Lockeford, California. The pair
started restoring cars together over 15 years
ago when they found that their separate
talents worked well together. To be able to
control all aspects of the restoration and to
ensure quality, they have designed a facility
that boasts a 1.5 acre, state-of-the-art
mechanics and body/paint shop. This shop is
different from others because they have the
ability to complete a restoration on site -
mechanical work, body work and paint.
Upholstery is about the only part of the job
that would be sent out and possibly some
machining on motors.

According to Jeff - who is the body and paint
expert of this team - "this shop understands the
history of the car". They also understand what
the customer wants to do with the vehicle in
order to do the job right. Tom - being the
mechanical brains of this team - believes they
understand what people want and need in a
restoration, whether it be an authentic
restoration or a custom retro rod.
