What We Offer
Period-Correct Finishing
We research the factory-original colors, materials, and techniques, then finish the car exactly as it left the line. Authenticity is what protects and grows a classic's collector value.
Classic & Muscle Cars
From Chevrolet Camaros and Ford Mustangs to Mopar muscle and vintage Corvettes, we restore the icons of American motoring. Every era and marque has its quirks, and our team knows them.
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.
Our Process
Here's how the work actually unfolds once your vehicle is in our Garland shop, step by step.
Assessment & Planning
Thorough documentation of your vehicle's condition, research into factory-original specs, and a detailed restoration plan.
Disassembly
Careful removal and cataloging of all components. For frame-off restorations, the body is separated from the chassis.
Metalwork & Paint
Rust repair, panel fabrication, bodywork, and application of period-correct or custom paint in our spray booth.
