Professional All The Way. With a little fun and excitement added in, this place is CRAZY!!!!!

My name is Pete. I am a person that learned everything from my own mistakes in life. From the easy simple stuff to the hard and complicated problems that arise. To this day, I still learn from my own mistakes. I don't ask anyone for anything and don't expect anything from anybody.
I own Southwest Rod and Custom in Lewisville Tx., and have been in business for over 25 year and in the same location for 17. I tackle every project that comes my way, from off frame restorations, custom automotive painting, motorcycle building, metal fabrication, fiberglass kit car buidling, and eveything in between.
I am considered the number 1 Streetbeasts Car Builder in America with over 150 complete replicas built to date.
SWRNC stands for Southwest Rod And Custom, I have been providing smiles on peoples faces for a LONG TIME, and plan on doing for even a longer time. There is nothing that can't be tackled with the right attitude and the ability to GET "ER" DONE. You can contact Pete at 972-420-1293

Pete, thank you for the gracious add. You need to be on cable. I've seen alot of custom car shows to know when there's talent for the luv and when the camera becomes a best friend. I would sign you on my network in a heartbeat, we need cats like you who hold no punches when it comes to creativity and when things don't always go right or customes need to be put in their place man you tell it like it is..I can dig that. So in final, stay blessed my man, I look forward to doing business with you in the very near future.

Pete, i'd like to say you're the best and i want to congratulate you for your great work and vids. I have a 78 vw bug, it's in nice shape, but has something to do, and you're helping me alot with your vids. So keep doing this amazing job and i hope some day i'll meet you and southwest rod and custom. Lets get "ER" done! (please send "hi" to Bruno! haha)

hey pete,really enjoy your videos on both of your channels....i love guitars and also own a shop...i do a lot of insurance repair but i try to keep some other projects going to fill in the gaps.....biggest problem i have is people want a barrett jackson paint job at a freakin' maaco price....i guess they have maacos in texas......anyway you know what i mean "half ass work"......but sometimes you get hooked up with the right person who doesn't mind paying to get it done right and it makes it all worth while....anyway keep up the good work and take some time to enjoy your great family(and bruno) life is too short....donnie

Sure thing utubeb. Just always remember one thing, you better like what you do if you plan on doing this for a living, because once you turn your hobby into work, that's exactly what it becomes - WORK. No more fun and games. And it's a HARD LIVING, -- Feast or Fammen in this business. Pete

Pete thanks so much for all your videos, they have really helped me learn more about the trade i plan to get into at the end of the year, it would be great if you restored a VW Type 2, I love that car

Hey, really enjoy the videos. I've had a Rod Shop since 1982 also and have also "been there and done that.", Them "buddy jobs" are killers. Lots more rust to repair here in Indiana than Dallas. Nobody wants to do it right the 1st time, so the second time is always harder to fix it right. Hang in there and keep enjoying what your doing. Enoy being the artist that you are even when it seems nobody else seems to appreciate it. That alone will keep you going. Love the desk ! & face sculpture ! Take time for yourself cause life goes too quick. - Scarry Larry

Bruno is a "SPOILED BRAT"! Actually he is a Miniture Pomaranian, he is 7 years old, and is the biggest he will get. But, he makes a good Supervisor!

Pete I want to Thank you for all your help and knowledge you are giving me and everyone else out there. You are genuine person, a one of a kind. There isn't to many people like you that would share the expertise and knowledge, and take their time to make sure everyone is happy with a product that has a reputation like Streetbeasts. I was very disapointed with my kit till I came across your video's. They are well made and very easy to understand. I wish there was somthing I could do for you in return... Just a Big Thanks is all I can say. You have made my day, alot of days at that. Thanks again and keep up the good work. Demme
