Restoring Classics, Reviving Memories

Our Mission

Retro-Gear exists to serve passionate Tri-Five Chevy enthusiasts with precision-crafted parts that honor the originals—and often exceed them. We blend old-school dedication with modern machining to help keep these classic cars alive and on the road.

How It All Started

In 1977, a 14-year-old boy watched his father buy a 1955 Chevrolet convertible at a Classic Chevy Club convention. That car became a treasured part of the family and a fixture of countless memories—from weekend shows to wrench-turning weekends in the garage.

Fast-forward to 2014, after inheriting the car from his father, that same boy—now a grown man—set out to restore it. But many of the parts he needed were either unavailable or lacking in quality. So, like his dad would have done, he rolled up his sleeves and made his own.

That experience led to Retro-Gear.

What We Do Today

Retro-Gear currently manufactures and sells over 53 high-quality reproduction and custom parts for 1955~1957 Chevrolets, including:

  • Inner and outer windshield moldings
  • Chrome dash bezels
  • Dome lights (LED options included)
  • Paint dividers, scripts, hood/trunk vees
