  • Consulting for the Discerning Automotive Enthusiast

    Not every project requires a complete build.

    This service may be ideal if you:
    • Need a second opinion on previous work
    • Want strategic input before commissioning new customizations
    • Aim to meet elite show-level standards with your project
    • Value trusted, discreet advice from someone deeply embedded in the industry
    • Require expert insight or testimony in a legal proceeding

    When it comes to high-end custom show cars, every detail matters. Whether you’re evaluating completed work or planning your next build, expert guidance can mean the difference between a good result and a world-class showpiece.

    With years of experience in the custom automotive world, I provide confidential, expert consulting for collectors, builders, and enthusiasts who demand perfection. From design guidance and craftsmanship evaluation to build planning and quality control, I offer an objective perspective to ensure your investment meets the highest standards.

    Your vision deserves flawless execution, exceptional service, and unwavering support. My unique skill set is at your disposal to help bring your expectations to life.

    1. How long will my restoration take?
      Every project is unique. The timeline depends on the condition of your vehicle, the extent of work requested, availability of parts, and the level of detail desired. A full restoration can take several months to more than a year.

    2. How much will it cost?
      Costs vary widely depending on the vehicle’s condition and the scope of work. We provide a detailed estimate after a thorough evaluation. Keep in mind that unforeseen issues (rust, hidden damage, or missing parts) can affect the final cost.

    3. Can I choose how far to take the restoration?
      Absolutely. Restorations range from driver-quality builds (reliable and enjoyable for everyday use) to concours-level restorations (show-quality and historically correct). We tailor our work to your goals.

    4. Do you use original parts or aftermarket parts?
      Whenever possible, we source original or OEM parts. When originals are unavailable or impractical, we use high-quality reproductions and review the options with you.

    5. Will I get progress updates?
      Yes. We provide regular updates (weekly or bi-weekly) with photos, reports, and billing summaries so you can see how your project is progressing.

    6. Can I visit the shop while my car is being restored?
      Of course. We encourage visits by appointment. Many clients find it exciting to see their car’s progress firsthand.

    7. What if unexpected issues are found during the restoration?
      Hidden damage is common in restorations. If we find something that affects your vehicle’s safety, performance, or overall build quality, we’ll contact you immediately to review the options before moving forward.

    8. Do you offer custom upgrades or only original-style restorations?
      We specialize in both. Some clients want period-correct restorations, while others prefer restomod builds that blend classic styling with modern performance, safety, and comfort upgrades.

    9. How do payments work?
      We use a custom electronic billing system. You’ll receive itemized progress invoices tied to project milestones so you can track both the work and the costs as they happen.

    10. Will my car’s value increase after restoration?
      In most cases, yes. A professional restoration typically raises a vehicle’s value, especially for rare or desirable models. However, market trends and originality can influence resale value.
