Our Team

Rusty Gillis

Welcome to Gillis Performance Restorations. When I started the business years ago it was because of my personal love for these timeless pieces of automotive history. A few years later I invited my son Brian to join me which turned out to be a very good decision. We’re now proud to say that GPR has celebrated over 20 years building beautiful classic restorations, and we continue to grow with unique projects along the way. We specialize in Mustangs as well as other timeless gems that we tailor according to each customer’s needs down to the finest detail. Every person on our team has a deep appreciation for these projects and they bring decades of experience to each custom build ensuring our customer’s vision becomes a reality.

“This is the crew of absolute craftsmen that have worked magic, miracles and purely unimaginable restoration on my prized possession Ivy, a 67 S code fastback, as close to a Shelby as I could ever afford. This team is family, my car will be an heirloom, I cannot speak more highly of them or the work they do. You have a classic Mustang, there’s no better hands to put it in!”     Bob M.
