Building and Restoring Victoria since 1998

Imagine yourself thundering 20 inches off the blacktop on a custom-built, one-of-a-kind Whiplash original motorcycle. Or climbing into the newly restored custom car or hot rod that has been on your bucket list for a lifetime.

There’s no ride like it – it makes a statement. Whether it’s loud and fast or restored and original, it’s 100% you.

This is Whiplash Customs – not your typical motorcycle servicing and custom build shop. We are all about the specialized art form of metal fabrication, whether it be for creating a custom new ride or restoring a valued piece of memorabilia. When you build or restore with Whiplash Customs you’ll sit down with Al Lambeth, the owner, take your time and go over exactly what you want and need to have done for your project;

The atmosphere is friendly and inviting as you sit in an authentic 50’s diner booth and Al goes over the details to make sure you have all the information you need and that you get the best advice possible. Then he gets to work on your project.

Whiplash Customs began as Whiplash Detailing in 1998 and has evolved into a high quality business venture under Al Lambeth’s direction and ambitious talent as a metal fabricator. Whiplash Customs is well known for experience, quality craftsmanship and excellent service catering to a diverse variety of customers looking to either have a treasured vintage tool, collectible car or memorabilia piece lovingly restored or a dream fulfilled by having a custom motorcycle designed and built to meet their vision.

A walk down Memory Lane.

Collectibles are memories.  And they are harder to come by all the time.  Keep your love for an era and treasured memories immortalized in a beautifully restored piece that makes you smile.  Gas pumps, peddle cars, vintage toys, ashtrays, and much more.

Built with experience.

To do a job right, you have to have passion.  Al has a deep respect for history and how important preserving those memories are.  With 35 years of metal fabrication and restoration experience, he handles each piece as if it was his own.  There are no shortcuts: only extreme care, using top quality materials, time and attention to detail. The results speak for themselves in completed projects.

There’s no
feeling like it.

Can you see yourself climbing into the newly restored custom car or hot rod that has been on your bucket list for a lifetime?

Life’s short,
enjoy the ride.
