Some info on the company that built this car.
American Custom Coachworks was the largest company custom coach builder in the USA. While they built a number of stretched limousines and utility vehicles, mostly for oil-rich Arabs, the bulk of their business was in converting steel-topped coupes to convertibles. They worked exclusively for Ford, Cadillac and Lincoln-Mercury dealers. It took about six weeks to make the conversion; this required removal of the top section as well as some restructuring, including reinforcing the windshield and door pillar posts. Today they manufacture Cadillac and Lincoln limousines and sell directly to Corporations, Casinos, Hotels, Companies, Limousine Services, Private Individuals, Heads of State, Royal Families, Movie Studios, and Celebrities.

The 1978 Sedan De Ville was upgraded in many ways including; Redesigned grille, slim vertical tail lamps inset into chrome bumper end caps with built-in side marker lamps (Cadillac would retain this "vertical tail lamp inset" design feature for many years, including Deville through 1999, and Fleetwood through 1996). Inside was leather upholstered seats and a leather-trimmed steering wheel.

Testimonial from a buyer...

To whom it may concern. I want to state for Bryan my absolutely positive
and unforgettable experience purchasing my dream car ......


I purchased a few weeks ago a 1965 Mercedes 230SL from Bryan Shisler and VIP tuning.

While I had been trying to find this car for a long time, at no point have I
had the opportunity to deal with someone like Bryan who has made this deal
beyond easy.

I'm based in New York and the car was based in San Francisco which had all
the ingredients of a complex transaction, mostly because I was purchasing
a car which was 45 years old.

Bryan gave me a completely thorough review of the car beyond what I would have ever expected.
He spent a lot of time talking to me by phone over several conversations helping me to understand every detail on the car. He gave me the right advise and description of the car, its strengths and all
its weaknesses.

Bryan drove several hours over the week end to bring the car to one of my
close friends to test drive and give it an over all inspection.

I have since then received the car, and all elements described by Bryan
were absolutely accurate.

I would with no hesitation do business with Bryan and recommend his
expertise and dedication to his customers.

Congratulation Bryan, you are able to turn a dream into a reality.

Hope to see you soon when I come on the west coast ...


And yes ... My little 230SL is a sweet little driver as you promised.

All the best ...

Jean-Marc


TESTIMONIAL of a person that we sold a car for under consignment.

It was through word of mouth within the local exotic car family that we learned of Bryan Shisler’s VIP Tuning Auto Consignment Sales service. We were looking to sell our Ferrari and knew we needed some help with setting the price, photographs, marketing, advertising and qualifying buyers, just for starters. Bryan and his staff delivered all of this and so much more!

We found VIP’s service professional, consultative and invaluable. Not only did he market our car beautifully with amazing photographs and a descriptive copy, but he also secured multiple buyers within weeks. We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of our transaction.

Thank you again, VIP Tuning!

I just wanted to thank YOU for doing such a great job selling my '69 Camaro Pro Street. It was refreshing working with a professional who honestly knows his business. The ability to express my needs, then back out of the picture, and have confidence that all will be handled with expedience and integrity.
I appreciate your recognizing what needed to be done, from the professional pictures to your time detailing the Camaro, which helped close the sale smoothly for both of us.
I will be proud and confident to refer you to others wanting to sell their automobiles.
Bryan Shisler of 'VIP Tuning' YOU are truly the MAN......
Thank You !
Sincerely,

TESTIMONIAL

March 29, 2009

To Whom It May Concern:

I recently purchased a lightly used Lotus Elise Sport through Mr. Bryan Shisler of VIP Tuning Pro. I’m thrilled with the car. And I was thrilled with the whole purchase experience.

I first learned of the car through Bryan’s web advertising. Upon inspection, I found the car to be exactly as Bryan had described it. Virtually mint. We amicably and matter-of-factly agreed on a price. We had none of the usual back-and-forth price drama that is sadly so common in auto sales. Just a cordial two-minute discussion and a handshake. Done.

Bryan then used his industry contacts to line up a mechanical inspection by an independent dealer for the next morning. The dealer confirmed the car’s excellent condition. Moreover, Bryan was very generous with his own time, putting the car on the lift at his facility and carefully inspecting it with me. I got the sense that Bryan would have happily spent hours with me going over the car. Again, this inspection confirmed the car’s fine condition.

I’ve lost count of the cars I’ve bought over the years. So yes, I’ve had to interact with many car sales “professionals.” Bryan is different. In the course of our inspections of my Lotus, and in our subsequent discussions, I began to see that Bryan has a near encyclopedic knowledge of exotic cars and of high performance driving. And best of all, Bryan relays the information in a gracious way, without being at all pedantic or condescending. He’s a genuine pleasure to be around.

And the little things: He picks up his phone. He is punctual. And he follows through on his commitments.

I would not hesitate to buy from Bryan again. Thanks Bryan!

Sincerely,

Martin B.
