Great people who came out, looked at my vehicle and gave me great advice. Definitely will be having my car worked on there, it's obvious they know what they are doing.

I give this shop 5 stars but wish that I could give it more. My 1928 FB President was pulled from the woods up in Oregon and brought down to Long Beach. GM and owner Tommy took the car completely apart, down to the frame and restored, rebuilt and refinished all of the original parts as if it just came off the assembly line. The care and thoughtfulness in even choosing the correct wood to replace damaged/worn pieces of the shell was impressive. I'm very picky and I couldn't be happier with the fit and finish of everything on this car. I shopped around and few shops in the country know pre and post war Studebakers like this shop does and can rebuild them as new. They also do tons of cool custom work on other older cars. Highly recommend.

Where do I start...I'm calling around to find a mechanic that can serve my needs for my 1935 studebaker my ol' 'girl. I was calling around to see if they could 1) be equipped to help me with the year and model 2) of so, ask if I can take in my vehicle But before all this could happen the gentleman on the phone was rude, his only response was call back. And when I asked him his name he just hung up on me. Why? This is not how you treat a perspective client. Good news/ called another shop, they were 1) professional 2) polite 3) helpful As a matter of fact, They will be looking at my ol' girl next week. Yay!!

I've known and trusted Tom and Jay for 4 years now. Their shop, Studebaker Restoration, is a rare find. They are incredibly capable, but most important is they are honest in their commitment to the customer. I've seen many projects go through their shop, from simple to complex, to full-on restorations. These folks are at the top of their field; Tom is most likely the best mechanic I've met. I've been involved in auto restoration and custom builds for more than 47 years and I can honestly say I've never known anyone more capable. I've seen him at ease working on rare antiques from the 1920's, many cars from the 1940's and 50's, Morgans and Jaguars, priceless Studebakers headed for the Pebble Beach concours, as well as modern classic Thunderbirds and Mustangs. I really don't think there's a complex project these folks cannot handle with care and professional attention.

I have been dealing with Tommy Meyers for over 15 years. The service I have received has been beyond my expectations. Tommy has been the only person that I have had confidence in any and all work performed. Tommy has always been professional in his services as well pricing. If you are looking for a knowledgable Restoration or service company with many years of experience then Studebaker Restoration Ltd is the place to go. I only have good things to say.

I've had a few odd jobs done here, and it was always done quickly and professionally. Tommy is a great mechanic, and everyone there is kind and courteous. I plan on using him for my next project.

Honesty, excellent work, vast knowledge and a commitment to do the job right are a few of the positive traits exhibited at this shop. They have taken on several jobs for me and they have excelled in each - all at reasonable costs.

I would not give them 1 star. Tommy who seems like a nice southern gentleman, had my 1953 Chevy Pick up for 3 weeks, he was supposed to put a new front end on, install engine and transmission. Nothing was done complete. The engine was mounted too high, and crooked. The new motor mounts were only welded 30% of complete. The Transmission tunnel he "built" looked like a 3rd grader installed. The engine had a new AC pump that was installed incorrectly by him. I gave the shop over $10k for labor alone, I was charged 5 hours for "cleaning an engine" (the engine was not clean at all. The place i believe was once good, Daryl and Jay and Carol ( who supposedly manage the place) are absolutely clueless when it comes to cars, Tommy writes checks with his mouth his rear end cannot cover. They are constantly asking for more money, as I stated $10k for 3-4 weeks of subpar work. I am now having to have all of Tommy's work redone correctly. Buyer beware they in my opinion are going thru some major money issues. Stay away stay very far away.

We have Classic Car Restoration Company in Goliad, Texas and found ourselves in need of expert service 1400 miles away from our business. We sold a 1953 Studebaker Truck, which was taken by a transport to the Port in Long Beach on its way to Hawaii. The transport driver ended up killing the battery and causing some problems under the hood. The transport then had the truck taken to a garage close to the Port. Needless to say, the work was beyond their capabilities. We took a leap and called Studebaker Restoration, Ltd. if we would've done that in the first place we would have been able to catch the first boat! Tommy & Carol stayed in communication with us throughout the entire process. Tommy fixed the issues and it "purrs like a kitten." Carol took pictures for us and also wrote up directions for the next transport driver. This is an expert operation, friendly, informative and very fair! Thank you again for all of your help and professionalism!
