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.

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."

This is a very interesting and rare car that was originally built in Lakewood, Colorado. Bob Carnes (Bo-Car) built a series of Bocar racing and touring cars in the late 1950s and 1960s. For bodywork, our crew has been ‘glassing’ and perfecting for months - it’s a fascinating process.

Here’s an example of what Jack was talking about with ‘trouble coming from other shops.’ This PF Cab was at another shop for years and hundreds of thousands of dollars of spend. It came here and we perfected the body, laid down paint just right and it went off to win Platinum.

This car was a classic ‘barn find.’ It came from Boulder, Colorado and as often happens, had a lot more rust that was apparent. A varied approach included new panels as well as custom repairs.

1958 PORSCHE 356A SPEEDSTER

This 1958 Porsche 356A Speedster was at another shop for a VERY long time. The work was dragging on and taking too long. The car was actually painted in Denver over 20 years ago, now it is with us to get looking great and going home.
