Cerullo Seats

One of our best buddies and most valued resources is Richard Cerullo.  He’s the guy who’s in charge at Cerullo Seats.   Richard’s shop is just a hop away from us over in Pomona, and if you’ve get a custom seat on your CSC motorcycle, Richard is the guy who built it.

Most of Richard’s business is providing original equipment seating for several of the ATV companies, and Cerullo Seats does a lot of custom automotive work, too.  Cerullo Seats is a company that’s been around for years meeting the needs of custom car builders, hot rodders, and many others.   Richard used to make van seats for all the van converters in So Cal, and his company has provided custom seats for many of the trend setting vehicles coming from the So Cal custom scene.  One of his current offerings is the Cerullo sport seat, which is a pretty cool high performance street car bucket.  Fascinating stuff.

Richard and Steve are good friends who go way back, and it’s easy to understand why.  Both guys like to have a good time and they both enjoy a good joke.   (I told Richard one of my favorite jokes yesterday and he really liked it.)  Ask Richard or Steve about any of their fishing trips when you have time (a lot of time), and you’ll be in for a good story or two (or three, or four, or…well, you get the idea).

I had a pretty good time with Richard when we visited his factory and I liked hanging out there.  The upholstery materials and the aroma brought back a lot of memories (my father was an upholsterer and so was Richard’s).   Interesting stuff and it made for a great conversation.   Another thing I like about Richard…he always laughs at all of my jokes.  He either has a keen sense of humor or he’s really polite (I think both).

If you take a look at the fringed seat on my California Scooter (it’s in the blog one or two entries down), I think you’ll agree it complements the bike’s look.   It’s one of Richard’s.   If you want one, give us a call and he’ll do one for you, too.
