THE PAGE CUSTOMS TEAM
JOE BAILEY
OPERATION MANAGER
“I have always wanted to know how things worked and were put together. We all have had that one guy in the neighborhood who had the coolest cars and was always working on something. That guy for me was Butch Minter. He introduced me to the car world and I have been hooked ever since. I went to trade school to learn auto mechanics. Then, I went to work at the local Chevy dealership. I met Larry through a mutual friend and have been working at Page Customs ever since.”
CLARENCE FOX
PARTS MANAGER
“My older brother is a car guy and had me helping to work on his cars when I turned ten years old. Him and I share our love for cars. When I completed school, I tried my hand at repairing cars and decided that I didn’t like having dirty hands, so I quit. I answered an ad in the newspaper for a Parts Counterman. I learned GM’s part system from managing inventory starting in 1974. I’ve worked at places including Buick, GMC, Chevrolet, and the rest is history. I retired in 2019 and now I have my dream job locating and ordering parts for vintage cars and trucks!”
BARRY MCKESSON
MACHINIST/FABRICATOR
“I was hooked on cars and performance at a very young age going to the drag races with my father in the 60s. He was a Racer, Fabricator, Mechanic and I have followed in his footsteps ever since. I am a grandfather now and I am still racing and fabricating parts for a lot of different performance vehicles. I look forward to many more years of learning, fabricating, racing and enjoying being with others that are Motorheads just like me.”
CHRIS CARTIER
PAINTER
“I attended Universal Technical Institute (Automotive Training School) in Houston Texas, then got a dealership job here in Virginia doing paintwork for almost 20 years. I decided on a change and currently enjoy painting custom cars.”
STEVE EDWARDS
TECHNICHIAN
“I have been married 41 years to my beautiful and great wife. We have three kids and nine grandkids. I started working for Chevrolet as a Technician in 1985 and worked for them for 35 years. I also worked at Koontz Paint & Body for four years and now Page Customs. I enjoy working on old cars and trucks and this will be where I finish up my career. Restoring cars takes time, but it is rewarding!”
SCOTT PRESLEY
FINAL ASSEMBLY
“I got introduced to cars at an early age. It started with Hot Wheels, then bikes, and then cars. I’ve always tried to be creative, different, and just make things cool!”
SAMMY BRADSHAW
AUTO BODY TECHNICHIAN
“I was kind of born for cars through my Grandfather and Father both performing mechanical and autobody repairs most of their lives. I followed in their footsteps, starting in the collision business and then transitioned into custom builds for the last 20 years.”
ANDY CREHORE
AUTO BODY TECHNICHIAN
“I own two antique Novas that I restored and painted in my home garage.”
LOUIE MILES

“I am a welding student and came to Page Customs to learn metal work. This is a great place to learn a lot of different skills and work with a variety of different materials as well as cars.”
HAILEY REYNOLDS
MARKETING ADMINISTRATOR
“I am a Marketing student at James Madison University that has joined Page Customs to further develop our online presence. I create content, manage our social media pages and website, as well as help to promote our events and parts/retail store. I first started on this path by going to local car shows and practicing automotive photography for the past eight years. I am from Richmond and have been building our website and social media pages from the shop this summer and will continue these efforts remotely when I return to school for my third year. I have a strong passion for cars (particularly exotics and Formula 1 Racing) and am thrilled to be a part of the Page Customs Team!”
