Meet Dana Schaeffer:
Dana Schaeffer actually married into the car industry back in 1993. Her husband owned a 1956 Chevrolet Belair mild custom and together they would travel up and down the East Coast to car shows, enjoying the hot rods and cool people they met. It’s during this time that Dana found out she actually enjoyed the hobby on her own terms.
In early 2004, Dana & her husband opened up Chop-Shop Customs in Woburn, MA (www.chop-shopcustoms.com) where they specialize in hot rod auto body, paint & metal fabrication. She is currently the Business Development Manager for the ‘shop’ and handles all the advertising, communications and website management.
Dana is Assistant U.S. Director of Representatives for New England for the Right Coast Association (www.rightcoastcars.com). She is also Media Relations Director for Bearing Burners Car Club (www.bearingburners.com) of Massachusetts and webmaster for the Massachusetts Association of Automobile Clubs (www.massautoclubs.org).
At the SEMA show in 2006, Dana was honored with an achievement award recognizing her continued support for the SEMA Action Network’s legislative efforts in the State of Massachusetts.
Dana resides in Burlington Ma, with her son, Nathan and her husband Lenny. She also works full time as an Automotive Account Manager for iMake News Inc. and is looking forward to the car show season this year with fervor.
