IF YOU’VE EVER HAD TO HAVE THE WORN-OUT CARPET REPLACED IN YOUR HOUSE OR APARTMENT, YOU PROBABLY WOULDN’T EXPECT THE INSTALLER TO PULL UP IN A SUPER TRICKED OUT 1949 CHEVY THAT LOOKS CLEANER THAN IT DID WHEN IT CAME OFF GM’S ASSEMBLY LINE. Well, Craig Speir is that dude. All right, so maybe he doesn’t go to every job in his super sick Chevy, but he could if he wanted. Craig and his wife Cindy own CNC Carpet in Hemet, California, where it’s hot and dusty most of the time and keeping a fine ride like this is almost a full-time job itself.
