We do everything from engines, drivetrains, Hi Performance work, body work, paint and fabrication work. Im working on keeping the car hobby afforable .

Some of the wiring mess I am repairing on the corvette. I rewired the cooling fan relay to work correct. Im in the process of rewiring the MSD ignition box and rewiring the electric headlight conversion kit, corvettes had a vacuum control on the headlight doors. Im cleaning up the rest of the wiring under the hood. Corvettes dont like electrical fires!

Starting today, the labor rate is going up to 50.00 an hour. Also, every job that comes here is going to have a estimate on parts and labor, and will require a deposit before work is started. If your bill is not paid in 30 days, I will charge a storage fee of 10 dollars a day after 30 days. Sorry to have to do this, but prices are going up. And if you have have big project, make sure you have the money for the project. Fixing these old cars up is not cheap!
