MX Restoration
My name is Brian Fedigan, owner operator of MXR. This is a
small shop and I want it to stay that way. I personally handle
every aspect of each project. I try to limit the work load to one
car or two bikes at a time. I started working at a body shop after
school when I was 14. I got into tool and die at 18 while doing
some car and bike building on the side. I became involved with
CNC, EDM and Laser machining. I also spent a couple of years
at a race car fab shop which produced super modified and
modified stock cars as well as working on a crew as a mechanic
on the NASCAR Featherlite modified tour in the 1980s. So how
did I get where I am today? Manufacturing has suffered in
Rochester since 2001. Unable to find machining work I moved to
doing restorations full time. The most notable work includes a
1936 Auburn which was on display at the Duesenberg Museum in
Auburn Indiana, the '64 Ford Galaxie "Fred Lorenzen" vintage
NASCAR which won 11 shows it's first year out and the '66 Nova
which sold at the 2008 Barret Jackson auction in West Palm
Beach for record money. In '07 I decided I wanted to get into
vintage MX. The result is the Maico 490 pictured on this site.
Riding that bike really got me going. I bought 10 more vintage
MX bikes to restore. I'm now dividing the shop in half to dedicate
space for the bikes with the plan to eventually do only bikes.
