Fuller Moto - Always Innovating - NC Shop Talk | Lyssna här

What does it take to stay creative and hands-on at the very top of the custom build world? That's what I wanted to find out from Bryan Fuller, owner and operator of Fuller Moto.

Bryan joined me from his vehicle for our first ride-along style interview, and the conversation never slowed down. We start with his custom boat build, a 1967 Correct Craft packed with teak that fools people into thinking it's a wooden boat. From there, Bryan takes us behind the scenes of his Amelia Island Concours experience, why he stopped chasing awards, and what working alongside Chip Foose taught him about craftsmanship.

We also get into his latest SEMA project: a V16 built by linking two 620 horsepower engines together, with a 1938 Cadillac-inspired look and 100-year-old railroad casters on the build table. It's the kind of innovation you rarely get to hear about.

Bryan also explains why upholstery is one of the hardest crafts in any build. That's close to home at NC, where our equipment serves carpet binding and a wide range of industrial sewing industries.

If you work in or love the automotive world, this one's for you.
