Tim Lingerfelt owns Carolina Coach Crafters in Mooresville, North Carolina. There, he and his talented craftsmen and fabricators work to eternalize the allure of the classic automobile through true craftsmanship. They do mechanical, metal shaping, paint, and paint correction along with special projects. While Tim has a passion for the Porsche marque, at Carolina Coach Crafters they work on numerous automotive marques. They strive to preserve the history of the automobile; where it was made, for what purpose, and by whom – because they believe the design is in the details. Their mantra: You dream, we fulfill.
