Dreams of Restoration

By Max Nepstad | Coaches Seth Siditsky and Tom Sperduto

Donald Trabold owns Trabold's Auto Carriage, an auto repair and body shop located on Jordan Road near downtown Skaneateles, N.Y. Trabold grew up in Skaneateles and his garage has been in his family for more than 50 years now. Trabold discovered he had Parkinson's disease when he was 50 years old and has since learned to live and work with the effects of his condition. He hopes to one day turn the focus of his garage from general collision repair to restoration, something he specializes in and is passionate about. Trabold fears his dream will never come to fruition if he reaches a state of not being able to work on cars anymore.
