All restoration work is contracted on a Time & Materials basis. This done because of the many unkown or unforeseen repairs, such as hidden rust, which makes it impossible to accurately forecast the cost of restoring a vehicle. The true cost is only revealed at the end of the rebuilding process. It is for this reason that all restorations are done on a time /materials basis. Each project will be different and have its share of repair challenges.

An advance retainer is required to start the project and additional payments will be required on a timely basis. Remember, the idea of an "inexpensive restoration" is just one of the many myths held by people not fully understanding the true meaning and scope of the words "Auto Restoration". The vehicle owner must make a substantial financial commitment before deciding to do a full restore.

Click on the pictures on the left side column. Two are links to a 58 Chevrolet Station Wagon that we are restoring and you will be able to see how much work is involved in a complete restoration job. The pictures with the car link shows the condition of the car before we started and the picture in the paint booth shows pictures durning the resoration. The car is not finished and when it is, the finished pictures will be posted.
