Award winning Paint and metalwork

Obsession, Layered and Polished

Perfect Paint

There are plenty of ways to lose sleep during a restoration. A truly great paint job is one of the things that keeps us up at night. From absolute perfectionism in preparation, to sanding, sanding and more sanding, our paint jobs simply must be seen to be believed. 

We are not the cheapest place in town for a reason. Our paint technicians are amongst the best in the nation. Their skills plus our advanced technology and elbow grease make for nationally-award-winning paint jobs.

Forged by Hand, Built to Last

Crafted in Metal

Metalwork is the heart and soul of any good classic car restoration shop. Our experts repair body panels, structural pieces and any number of other parts for a project. That’s because we know that no amount of body filler can hide bad work. 

We also are tasked to fabricate new panels, parts and assorted other bits for many of the more rare classic cars that we work on. To watch our metal pros go from start to finish is something special. It’s a lost art, and we do it better than anyone in town. Or anywhere, for that matter. 

Feel free to click through some of the project galleries listed here. You’ll see in-depth, step-by-step photos of specific metal projects in the shop. And when you’re ready to have your Ferrari or Porsche or other classic car’s body perfected, bring it in. 

Precision in every panel

The Art of Fitment

Visit our shop and you’ll find nearly every stage of classic car bodywork going on. Whether our team of experts is crafting a replacement fender for a classic Corvette, or performing a complete restoration of a $1 million plus Ferrari, our team can complete any kind of bodywork imaginable. 

From fiberglass to alloy and steel, a visit to our shop will show you just about every kind of classic car body, metal and paint you can imagine.

From Shop Owner Jack Farland: “More often than you might think, we are fixing mistakes from previous restorations or body shops. This is crucial for keeping and increasing the value of a classic car. When we media blast a car and find terrible work, we fix it. It’s that simple. Our goal is that in 100 years, when the car is stripped again, the restorers believe that what they see came from the factory.”
