Reviving classic cars that have not run in years
A car that has been sitting for years has to be woken up carefully so nothing gets damaged on the first start. It is one of our favorite jobs.
Fuel goes bad, seals dry out and brakes seize while a car sits. Turning the key too early can damage an engine that only needed a careful restart.
We go through the car system by system before the first start, then make it safe to drive again. Hearing an engine run for the first time in years never gets old.

- Inspection before anyone turns the key
- Fuel system cleaning or replacement
- Ignition and carburetor service
- Brakes, hoses, belts and fluids
- Battery, wiring and lighting checks

Who it is for
Barn finds, inherited cars and anything that has been parked for a long time.
