Rust To Riches Restoration

Rust To Riches Restoration Rust To Riches provides restoration and customization of all things old and new

Rust to Riches (RTR) was founded by Chris Hegge and Steve Motichka, for their pure passion and talent for, intially, the art of antique vehicle restoration and customization. After working years for a top fuel drag racing team and then a nationally renowned hot rod shop, Chris decided to move back to his hometown and share his talents with the folks on the East Coast. After founding a successful e

quipment rental company in Northeast Pennsylvania in the late 1980's, Steve has finally stepped out of the day-to-day operations of the company to focus on the Rust To Riches Projects and get hands-on with his own passion: Chevelle's. RTR performs everything from sheet metal work and fabrication to custom home decor, also performing mechanical hot/street rod work and restoration of everything from antique gas pumps to Coke machines and everything vintage! The guys at RTR thoroughly enjoy every step in the detail and transformation of each project, as evidenced in the "before and after" pictures (please take a peek at the photo albums!) The staff of Rust To Riches invite you to stop by and visit their shop and see all of the current projects.

Hey everyone. We havent posted in a while but we've been busy wrapping up our 78 F250 project. This one came to us well over a year ago and was a huge project. We stripped this one down to bare chassis and rebuilt every system. We sourced a good used cab from out west as the origional was in such poor condition and built the entire bed from new panels. For paint we went with PPG Nissan New Blue metallic and boy does it suit this truck well. The truck recieved a new wiring harness, a new interior, and new wheels and tires. This one runs, drives, and looks better than it did when it was new and we're happy to have already turned the keys over to the owner so he can enjoy his truck.

Good morning. Sorry we havent posted in a while weve been busy on quite a few projects. But the warm weather has us thinking about hot rod season and this one is finally ready to go. We've been working on this 57 chevy 210 for some time now and it evolved into a way bigger project than we ever anticipated. Just a recap, we did quarters, floors, new doors, new fenders, sandblasted and painted the chassis, new suspension, fresh paint and body, new interior, the list goes on. This is essentially a brand new 1957 Chevy 210 and boy does it look it. We are extremely proud of how this one came out and extremely lucky to have worked with such an awesome owner on this one. This one will still be in our care a bit longer until the weather breaks and we can put some test miles on it but we are happy to have the majority of the work completed on this project!
