Classic Cars Aren't A Sideline. They're The Point.

Why A Specialist

Old Cars Speak A Different Language

Take a classic to a general shop and watch the estimate grow. It's not malice — it's unfamiliarity billed by the hour. A tech raised on scan tools meets a carburetor, a points distributor, or a 40-year-old wiring harness, and every step takes three times as long, at your expense. Worse, the modern reflex — replace the module — fails completely when the module hasn't been manufactured since 1979. Old cars need diagnosis by understanding, and repair by rebuild-over-replace judgment.

That's the entire premise of this business. We work on vehicles 25 years and older as the specialty, not the exception — and because we're mobile, your classic never rides a flatbed or sleeps in a strange lot to get that expertise. The shop comes to the barn, the carport, or the driveway where the legend lives.

The three houses we serve

What Classic Service Looks Like Here

• Diagnosis the old way — fuel, spark, compression, vacuum — with the patience modern flat-rate shops can't afford
• Tune-ups as a craft: points, condensers, dwell, timing, carb adjustment done to spec, not to "close enough"
• Recommissioning: waking cars that sat — fuel systems, brakes, seals, and the checklist that prevents a "ran when parked" tragedy
• Sympathetic repair: correct parts where they matter, owner-supplied NOS and reproduction parts welcome, and honesty about what a driveway can and can't do
• Classic pre-purchase inspections — rust, originality, and parts-availability judgment a generalist PPI misses

Same Transparent Rates

Classic work bills exactly like everything else we do: published rates — $125 diagnostics + $1.50/mile, $125–135/hr labor — with estimates approved before work starts. No "vintage surcharge," no mystery hours. Old cars get charged for the time they take, and our specialty means they take us less of it.
