A new website for Pro Auto Custom Interiors
Your website has been down for over a year. I built a new one from your own photos, video and words. Here is what it looks like, what it costs and what happens next.
Scroll to readToday, a search finds a dead page
Down since August 2025
Anyone who hears your name at a show and looks you up lands on an error page.
Google listing unclaimed
5.0 stars from 14 reviews, but no website, and nobody can update it, answer questions or add photos.
Your best work scrolls away
The Ridler car, the Goodguys truck and the Barrett-Jackson GTO live only on Instagram and Facebook.
The domain itself is fine. It is registered through June 2027; the hosting behind it is what broke.
Google already sends people your way
Search data pulled from Google through DataForSEO on October 31, 2026, searching from Knoxville on a phone.

Claimed
You have the best rating of the three, and the only listing with no website and nobody managing it. On Google Maps, a search for "auto upholstery" puts you third of 40 shops.
searches a month for "pro auto custom interiors" across the US, about 50 of them from the Knoxville area. Google still lists your old site third for your name, and it opens on an error.
websites link to proautointeriors.com. eClassicAutos credits "Interior: Pro Auto Interiors" on its 1936 Pontiac "Prohibition" across hundreds of its pages, and every one of those clicks lands on the error page. Pointing the domain at the new site puts them back to work.
The new site is ready to see
It is live now at proauto.pcameron.co. Google is told not to list it until you approve the launch.
Every photo and video comes from your own posts. Nothing on it is stock.
Every car gets a build sheet
Laid out like a show placard: the builder, the owner, the leather and the specs from your post, then every photo and the walkaround video.
34 cars are up now, from a 1933 Ford to a Hellcat-swapped Challenger. Adding the next one is a single entry, and it is the monthly job in the care plan.

They sit right under the video on the home page, and each one links to the car's own page.

The interior is where you spend your time
Adapted from your 2008 About page, this line heads the new home page. The services list is your 2016 list, and the reviews are your customers' own words from Google and Facebook. Every fact on the site traces back to your posts, your old site or the press.
Made for the phone first
Most people will see it on a phone, at a show or in a parking lot. The videos play silently, and the walkarounds only load when someone presses play.

Each month, the site keeps up
The care plan covers all of this for $150 a month.
Up to two new builds
Photos, the walkaround video and the build sheet, taken from your Instagram.
Text and photo changes
Up to 30 minutes a month, done within two business days.
Hosting and security
Hosting, the security certificate and uptime checks, so the site stays up.
The inquiry form
Messages from the site land in your inbox, with spam filtered out.
A monthly note
Visits, phone taps, inquiries and the builds people looked at most.
Your domain
I look after proautointeriors.com and leave your email exactly as it is.
Not included: new kinds of pages, photography and ads.
Your Google listing, claimed
Claiming it, $300 one time
- Verify you as the owner
- Add the website, hours, services and categories
- Add 30 photos from your builds
- Post your newest builds
The listing is what people see in Google Maps. After setup, posting each new build to it is $75 a month, if you want it.
Built to be found on Google
Searches for this kind of work are small and specific: tens to low hundreds a month, from people planning a car. The site is set up to catch them.
Your Google listing
Claimed and linked to the site. You already show up first or second in Google's map box for searches like "custom car interior tennessee" and "auto upholstery knoxville".
Pages by kind of car
Corvettes, trucks, muscle cars, and classics and hot rods, each with every build of that kind, for searches like "c10 custom interior" (260 a month) and "c3 corvette interior" (590 a month).
A page for every new build
Each car the care plan adds gets its own page and joins its group, so the site grows every month.
Credit from your builders
Scott's Hotrods 'n Customs, Kevin Riffey Hot Rods, MB Hotrods and Alloway's each have a car on the site. A link from their build pages to yours counts for more on Google than anything I can write.
Search counts are Google's monthly estimates, pulled through DataForSEO on October 31, 2026.
What it costs
Three ways to do it. Each one includes the site as you see it today and the care plan.
Build and care plan
- Up front
- $3,500
- Monthly
- $150
The care plan runs 12 months, then month to month.
Spread out
- Up front
- $1,000
- Monthly
- $250for two years, then $150
About the same over two years, $7,000 against $7,100, with a smaller start.
Both sites, one plan
- Up front
- $3,500
- Monthly
- $225for this site and steveholcomb.org
Replaces the $100 a month plan for steveholcomb.org, so you get one bill.
Google listing setup, $300 one time
Claim, verify and fill out your listing, with 30 photos.
Logo cleanup, $150 one time
A clean version of your logo for the site, signs and shirts.
For scale: a dealer listing for a 1940 Ford you trimmed puts the interior at over $20,000.
What I need from you
None of these hold up a decision. The domain login is the only one the launch waits on.

What part of the car did the shop do? I want the Ridler line exactly right.

Are you comfortable showing them on build pages, the way your posts do?
The domain
Who has the IONOS login for proautointeriors.com? Do you use an email address on it?
