Paul Johnson has been involved in the automotive field since before High school, having infiltrated the work force by fibbing about his age. At 15 years old he began his career at the local gas station, pumping gas and doing odd repairs. He remembers going in early on a Saturday, changing oil, pumping gas, and washing cars till mid afternoon. after a lull in the action and servicing several "U" Haul trucks, he continued his duties till 2 PM (Sunday morning)when the business closed. A three Mile walk home was a pleasure after the long hours of the day.

Today Paul Johnson, originaly from Massachusettes, is the proud owner of CustomClassics and Performance, located in Arlington Vermont. His claim to fame has more to do with his perseverance and commitment to the automotive technologies and love for Classic Machinery and the sport of Drag Racing (A sanctioned sport that only occurs at a sanctioned track by either IHRA or NHRA). Paul has owned and operated several automotive related businesses in the past 35 years, including several gas stations and a Shell Food Mart with gasoline, An automotive repair garage and also a Speed Shop in the Worcester Massachusetts area from 1991 to 1999. In 1984 Paul was certified by the state of Massachusetts as a Vocational education instructor in the automotive technologies. Paul taught at Worcester Vocational Technical High School, Blackstone Valley Vocational High School and Joseph P. Keefe Technical High School. Paul began his Drag Racing activities at Lebanon Valley Drag way in 1969 after winning a Ford invitational event at New England Drag Way in august of that year. After winning ten straight victories at Lebanon Valley in 1969, He was hooked forever! In 1974, Paul purchased the old Country Girl Funny Car from Carl Revese in Waltham Massachusetts. He became licensed at New England Drag way that year and ran the car for Two years in the Pro Com Category of Drag Racing at local tracks. (Lebanon Valley, Connecticut Drag Way and New England Drag Way, His home track at this point). Since then He has been actively involved in drag racing, having won the 20th annual Grand Nationals in TAFC (NHRA) and beating the then world champion Bob Newbury in the finals.
