ABOUT CHRIS CARR DESIGN

Chris Carr, Founder and Owner of Chris Carr Design, first began his business as a hobby in a small garage with minimal tools.  Always a designer and artist at heart, he would work for hours on model trains and cars as a child in his parent's, Don and Marlys Carr's basement in a small town in Iowa.

Chris is a graduate of Central Michigan University with a Master's of Business Administration (MBA) and has worked in the corporate sector, very successfully, for many years.  

 

He has always been drawn to design and art and now combines that with vintage motorcycles.  Chris is completely self taught.  Spending hours reading manuals, trial and error and surrounding himself with legends in vintage rebuild and design.  His shop was his laboratory and he has studied countless hours to perfect his craft.

Chris Carr Design is a family owned and operated business with Chris' son, Noah Carr as his right hand man.  Noah is learning along side his Dad how to not only take apart a vintage motorcycle to prepare it for rebuild, but he is also learning the business side.  Also sharing in the business is Chris' wife, Julie and two other children, Madison and Zoe.
