Car restoration business helps people drive their dream

RANDOLPH A car restoration business that prides itself on quality work has a simple goal helping people drive their dream.

Steve Gursky Jr. and his wife, Molly, own Driven Restorations, located at their rural Randolph home.

The Gurskys moved to Randolph from northwestern Wisconsin a few years go when Molly had a job change. A graduate of Wyotech, Steve said hes been working on cars since he was 8 or 9, and working on them professionally for about 12 years.

Driven Restorations will work on projects big and small, from a frame-off restoration to minor repairs and does almost everything in house except upholstery and machine work on engines. Driven Restoration fully document projects including photographs and videos so the owner can see the process.

The Gursksy said they try to stay with local suppliers as much as they can.

Steve said he takes pride in his work, and considers each car he works on to be an advertisement for his business.

People really notice the details, he said. Its all about the details.

Molly said a project can be restored back to stock, or customized with performance parts.

The Gurskys said the car scene is a lot bigger in this area than it was in northern Wisconsin. Steve had worked for an auto body shop on restoration and collision projects. He said hes not going to get rich working on restorations through his current business.

You have to have a passion to do it, Steve said.
