For Rowlett owners chasing concours-level results, we perform full frame-off, rotisserie restorations - disassembling the vehicle completely so every component down to the bare frame can be restored, repaired, or replaced.
Period-Correct Finishing
Rowlett collectors know authenticity drives collector value - that's why we research original colors, materials, and techniques before finishing any restoration.
Classic & Muscle Cars
We take on classic and muscle car restorations for Rowlett enthusiasts — recent work includes a customer's Mustang Shelby GT500 replica ("Eleanor") that needed a custom carbon-fiber hood and quarter-panel repair.

“Our car had a dent from a neighborhood kid on a golfcart. The quotes we received blew our minds. We stumbled onto Texas 5 Star Paint & Body and we couldn't happier with the work they did. Their price was extremely reasonable. Most places were quoting 3-4 times the price. While the price was great for us, what stood out most was how much they cared about the work they do. If the future need arrises, we will absolutley bring our business back to them!”

Auto Restoration FAQ for Rowlett Drivers
What types of cars do you restore?
We take on classic and muscle car restorations for Rowlett 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 Rowlett 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 Rowlett 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.
