Meet Terry

With more than 25 years of professional detailing experience, Terry is the Master Detailer at Classy Chassy of North Muskegon. Born and raised in Grand Haven and a North Muskegon resident for the past decade, Terry has spent a lifetime perfecting the art of making vehicles look their absolute best.

His passion for automotive restoration began at an early age in his father's body shop, where he learned not only the craft of professional detailing but also the fundamentals of body work. Terry says the most rewarding part of his job is seeing the dramatic transformation from "before" to "after" and the satisfaction that comes from bringing a vehicle back to life.

When he's not at the dealership, Terry enjoys spending time with his wife, Jessica, whom he's been married to for seven years. He has two daughters, ages 19 and 23, who mean the world to him. And as a lifelong automotive enthusiast, Terry volunteers at car shows and fundraising events throughout the Midwest and loves being part of the classic car community. In his spare time, you'll often find him in the garage working on his prized 1964 Chevrolet Impala, a project that reflects his dedication to craftsmanship and his love for classic automobiles.

Whether it's a daily driver or a cherished collector car, Terry takes pride in treating every vehicle with the same level of care, attention to detail, and craftsmanship that has defined his career for more than two decades.

Outside of work, Tobin is a dedicated student-athlete who enjoys playing football and basketball and spending time on the golf course whenever he can. He is also deeply family-oriented. For years, he has faithfully mowed his grandmother's lawn every week, a small example of the character, responsibility, and work ethic that define who he is.

Although he works part-time while balancing school and sports, Tobin continues to impress everyone around him with his maturity, determination, and willingness to learn. With his positive attitude and passion for the automotive industry, there's no doubt he has an incredibly bright future ahead.
