About us

New Vintage Automotive was founded in 2009 under a series of key fundamentals that other shops were not living up to.
1. Offer the highest level of customer satisfaction
2. Never cut quality for price
3. Be truthful to the customer
4. Maintain a positive image to the community and the customer

We feel that by having these fundamentals in place, helps us provide the best service to our community and potential customers. We also maintain a clean as can be environment for our customers and onlookers to browse our facility. In the fall of 2009, owner Keith Lundholm opened New Vintage Automotive and have been servicing not only the local needs, but a national need for restoration work.

Please respond directly onto New Vintage Automotive's page if this is being shared to a group. I will not see a lot of replies on multiple groups. Picture for attention, these will be like original dashes, metal frame with foam. We are not 3D printing...please read!

Okay, this is the master list, either by user name or Facebook name. If you are not on this list, and you are hoping to get a dash, you need to make sure that I get you on said list. If you have changed your mind, or something needs changed, message me or post here so
I can correct it. There is still time to get on the list, once the molds are made we will determine the quantities we are going to make, and then it will be closed for commitments. Again, no money needed up front, this is just a commitment that you want a dash, and you understand the cost is
$1400.

Getting small stuff done on the 1969 Kadett Rallye. Carpet and seats, trunk rubber, door handles and latches, side pop out glass….we rollin’

10/27/2026

Other than white needing to be tweaked, the connectors are ready to produce for the GT, already have the female ones in stock

10/26/2026

We are getting one step closer on Opel GT dashboards. The 3D print is being packed up and I will be able to fit it and make note of changes that need to be made. Please know we are not 3D printing dashes, they will be produced like originals with metal frames and foam. The 3D print is just a necessary step before having very expensive molds produced.

1972 Strato Blue GT getting the old transmission out for a 5 speed. Fixing some wiring issues and taking care of a few maintenance items. Installing our air conditioning as well.

10/21/2026

It’s all down hill for this GT now. It seems once I have them running pretty decently, and can move it under its own power, the road to out the door is quickly approaching

10/16/2026

Back going again, this time in Deep South Carolina. There are some Opels down here

09/27/2026

So a wrap up to a long 4 days at Mecum Auction in Nashville, TN. Connected with several Opel folks, being about 1 hour from home, I saw many local friends, and the weather was great. I feel the car really got a lot of attention, and kind of put the Kadett Rallye back on the map with Opels in general. It’s usually all about the GT. Looks like the car will be heading home to Detroit, as the car was still there for shipping. Wish I could have taken pictures of all the cars there, I just don’t need that all in my phone. Special thanks goes out to James R Dunham, and Scott Fitzgerald for getting me into this auction and allowing me to represent our work.

Was pretty pleased with the results at Mecum. Also met with several people and have some potential other cars sold as a result.

09/24/2026

Couldn’t ask for a better place to be staged in all day. Car is one of the last to go across, but it’s one of the first cars you see when coming in!
