What We Offer
Frame-Off Restorations
When only concours-level results will do, we take the vehicle apart completely - a full frame-off, rotisserie restoration in which every component down to the bare frame is restored, repaired, or replaced. Dallas collectors trust this process for their most valuable builds.
Period-Correct Finishing
Factory-original colors, materials, and techniques are researched before a single panel is finished, so Dallas vehicles come back exactly as they left the factory floor.
Classic & Muscle Cars
Whether it's a Mustang or another classic muscle car, Dallas owners trust our team's familiarity with the details that define each era and marque.
Our Process
From initial assessment to final inspection, here's what to expect when you bring your vehicle to Texas Five Star.
Assessment & Planning
Thorough documentation of your vehicle's condition, research into factory-original specs, and a detailed restoration plan built around your Dallas project's goals.
Disassembly
Every component is carefully removed and cataloged; frame-off projects go further, separating the body completely from the chassis.
Metalwork & Paint
Rust repair and panel fabrication come first, followed by bodywork and a period-correct or custom paint application in our spray booth.
Reassembly & Detail
Precision reassembly, final detailing, and quality inspection to deliver a show-ready or driver-quality restoration to Dallas owners.

Auto Restoration FAQ for Dallas Drivers
What types of cars do you restore?
We take on classic and muscle car restorations for Dallas owners, from partial refinishing to full frame-off rebuilds. One recent example: a customer's Mustang Shelby GT500 replica ("Eleanor," from Gone in 60 Seconds) came in for a custom carbon-fiber hood and quarter-panel repair after we caught body work from a previous shop that needed correcting.
How long does a full restoration take?
Timelines vary widely depending on the vehicle's condition and the scope of the build - a partial restoration moves faster than a full frame-off, rotisserie project. We'll map out a specific timeline during your assessment and planning stage.
Do you do partial restorations?
Yes. Not every project needs a full frame-off rebuild - we tailor the scope to your goals, from a driver-quality partial restoration to a full concours-level, ground-up build.
Can you source hard-to-find parts?
Sourcing correct or correct-style components is part of our restoration process for classic and muscle cars, so Dallas owners don't have to hunt down parts themselves.
Do you offer a warranty on your work?
Yes — all of our paint and bodywork, including restoration work performed for Dallas customers, is backed by a 5-year paint warranty.
Do I have to use the body shop my insurance recommends?
No. In Texas, you have the right to choose your own repair shop — your insurance company cannot require you to use one of their recommended shops.
