New West Integrated Technology

New West Integrated Technology Ltd was founded in 1989 by Ernie Beskowiney and quickly earned a reputation for producing outstanding work. Ernie has always been labelled a perfectionist by those who critically view his work and this is clearly demonstrated by his phenomenal track record in antique car restoration. For example, a 1915 Model T Ford G... entlemen's Speedster which he restored, sold at auction for $35,000, a record which still stands today.
