The column clutch to my '68 Ford Falcon has been sticking for several years; sometimes I couldn't get it into first gear or reverse. I thought it meant the need to replace the socket in the column. No one would work on it. Finally someone recommended Automotive Classics. When Frank looked at the part I brought, he thought it wasn't enough: It needed other parts too.Then, noting the struggle to get it into first gear, he asked to open the hood. He looked at the gears. He went to get something: a tall thin can that looked red to me. As he sprayed he told me to keep shifting the clutch. Then he told me to drive around the block.It was better, but would it last?Just get out some WD-40 and spray the gears, he said.Ignorance is anxiety; information is bliss.He sent me freely on my way.Thank you, Frank!

The best customer service ever. I brought my "distressed " 66 Pony here due to the outstanding reviews on Yelp. I was not wrong. They explained to me everything that needed to be performed on the car and the time it would take. Proper specs and safety were their biggest concern. I like that. The price I was charged was very very reasonable. They informed me of additional work needed to be done before proceeding. I'm very satisfied with Frank and Nancy. Best team ever. Thanks so much. Be in the lookout for a 65 Mustang coming your way. You are my go to shop from now on.

Always fast, fair, and professional with my 1951 Ford F1 Truck. A gem if you own a classic automobile.

Extremely disappointed in you Frank honestly you should be ashamed of yourself and your business. I brought my classic truck over to Frank because it was pulling really hard to the right when I was braking although the brakes were working fine. Long story short a few bolts were missing in my subframe causing a "bolt in" bracket to move and flex. Instead of just replacing nuts and bolts and snugging it down Frank decided to weld the bolt in bracket to my classic truck's frame without asking. He called to tell me how much it would cost and said around $500 dollars to get me sorted, the next day I go to pick up my truck and his son tell me my bills $1,000. I look at the computer invoice and there is nothing listed on the work order it says "oil change filter" so I go to his main mechanic and I ask him to show me what he did and turns out Frank decided to weld the bracket. Not only do the welds look like a 3 year old did it but it major amateur hours work. Cold welds looks like a tweaker did them. This is now way more work to back track than I needed to begin with. You cannot just decide to do what you think it right without asking my permission. You'll be seeing a letter shortly from small claims court. I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND TAKING YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS P***** An attitude and you weld like trash? Who do you think you are.

Frank, Giovanni, and the entire team at Automotive Classics are always very professional, knowledgeable, and service oriented. I have never had nothing less than stellar and amazing service here for our 66 Mustang work over the years.

I took my 1967 Dodge Challenger with a 440 engine for some TLC and the team was amazing, they were very professional and handled all my concerns with the utmost attention. If you have a classic vehicle I recommend Automotive Classics. The office manager Giovanni was very helpful.

No one touches my '69 Mach 1 but Frank and his team! They've added AC, custom serpentine belt and kit, full engine overhaul, new carb, 5spd transmission, custom sound and so much more. All perfectly installed.

So the engine to my beloved 1948 Chevy Fleetline Aerosedan had the unfortunate mishap of all unfortunate mishaps and required a complete replacement. The whole situation made me sick to my stomach. I, however, did feel extremely fortunate to have discovered this business at a time when I needed such a place the most. I felt comforted by the fact that they seem to almost only work on classic cars. Those who understand classic cars, tend to understand their owners and the higher level of scrutiny that comes with them. During the fix Frank made suggestions for things I could do when I expressed a desire for my engine compartment to look more show-worthy. Some things he took upon himself like cleaning up the the haphazard-looking wiring done by a previous owner. There was a bump in the road late in the fix when it came to my intention that I was missing a couple necessary parts. Frank worked with me to get the parts purchased and get my car back to me while somehow not pushing the estimated time of completion another day. Anyways, I couldn't be happier with the result of this extensive repair. I felt the work was done with care and by professionals with undeniable knowledge of their craft. The staff is friendly. The owner, Frank, is very blunt, which is something that I personally appreciate. He can be very short with you when you speak with him, in a way that lacks the customer service touch. However, the outstanding, careful work that was done here on my beloved car is more than enough to keep all 5 stars intacted, while also guaranteeing my return to this business. Well done.

They can handle difficult situations and part-sourcing. Creative solutions. Never heard a No from them, but also upfront about projected costs. Quality work.

Frank and his son make the wheels turn. They worked on my 1965 C-20 for three major modification and hit the ball out of the park.
