ABOUT OUR TEAM
Mark Lambert, owner of Wasatch Customs, has been in the industry for 21 years. He has worked on cars for as long as he can remember, starting in a local rental yard at 15 years old, maintaining equipment, and worked in local tire shops and dealerships around the Layton area.
Mark opened his first shop at 19 years old, mainly working on 4-wheel-drives and speed work (hot rods), and was very successful until the big leap in gas prices. Like many specialty shops, Mark had to close the shop and try a different profession. Mark started doing sheet metal fabrication on a production line for a while, then decided to work for the government in 1983 to work on airplanes.
In 1995, after his government experience, Mark opened his auto repair shop part-time. Over 21 years of continuous growth, his business grew to be one of the largest independent auto repair shops in Davis county.
Mark has always been fascinated with cars and wanted to know how they worked and how to make them go faster! He has always felt "at home" working on cars and trucks, and his ultimate favorite part of the process is making people's dreams come true. Nothing is more fulfilling than seeing a client's face when their car is completed and they start to tear up or come up speechless because they're too excited to even speak!
When you ask our staff what their dream job is, the answer is unanimous - this is our dream job! All of us work on own dream cars in our spare time. We're unique how we assign a technician to a car-they work on each car from start to finish. They do the fabrication, the body work, the paint, and the finish work.
Look no further than Wasatch Customs. We are the best place for your dream car's needs!
Big Chris, manager of Wasatch Customs started out here as a master technician in 2018 and quickly worked his way up to managing the shop. Chris has been a hot rod enthusiast all his life and started in the industry in 2006.
He has always been into cars, coming from a family of Hotrodders. His first car, he bought and started building at the age of 13. In 1988 he moved to tuscon and restored vintage war time Air Craft. However, Hotrods were in his blood.
Chris has hot rods of his own and understands the interest and the passion that others have for theirs.
He is originally from Oregon and had a business of his own. He decided to leave his hometown and business to come to Utah to bring new ideas to Wasatch Customs. Not having family in a new state, his crew quickly grew to be like family to him.
Chris's goal for Wasatch Customs is to help make your Hot Rod experience the very best, through knowledge and talent of the Wasatch Customs Team.
