If it's worth saving,
we'll build it.
Scouts and Broncos are our specialty. But the list of what's come through this shop is much longer — and the standard never changes.

The Range
Every classic has a story worth telling.

The Scout and Bronco get most of the attention. But what comes through the doors of this shop is a much wider conversation — Power Wagons, Grand Wagoneers, first-gen Camaros, WWII Willys Jeeps, Land Rover Defenders, VW Buses, classic trucks.

The platform changes. The process doesn't. Every vehicle gets the same teardown, the same honest assessment, the same standard of work. The only thing that adjusts is the knowledge required to do it right — and we've built enough different vehicles to have that knowledge.

If you have a classic that doesn't fit the Scout or Bronco categories, tell us what it is. We'll tell you whether we're the right shop.

A selection of what's come through the shop beyond Scouts and Broncos. Every one of these has a story. Most of them arrived in worse shape than they look here.
Jeep Grand Wagoneer · Restoration
Grand Wagoneer — Copper & Custom Interior
The Grand Wagoneer is one of the most underappreciated restomod platforms — full-size, capable, and with an interior that can be made genuinely luxurious. This one came in needing mechanical and cosmetic work throughout. It left with a full refresh and a custom gray leather interior.

Dodge Power Wagon · Frame-Off Build
Power Wagon — From Rust to Ready
Few trucks carry as much history as the Dodge Power Wagon. This one arrived with DODGE still stamped across the hood — original, rough, and worth saving. Frame-off. Engine rebuilt. Every system addressed before the body went back on.

Ford F-100 · Full Restoration
F-100 — Powder Blue Build
The F-100 is one of the most proportionally correct trucks Ford ever made. Long bed, low hood, simple lines. This one came in stripped. It left powder blue, lifted, and looking like it rolled off the line in 1969 — except better in every way.

WWII Willys MB · Period-Correct Restoration
Military Jeep — Serial 2021633
This is the vehicle that made the Jeep name. A WWII Willys MB — period-correct restoration, military markings stenciled by hand, olive drab throughout. Serial number 2021633. Every detail verified against original spec. Some builds are about driving. This one is about honoring what the vehicle is.

Buick Skylark Convertible · Before & After
Skylark Convertible — Green & Cream
Surface rust on the hood, faded paint throughout, a convertible top that had seen better decades. The Skylark is a beautiful platform when it's right — the long hood, the chrome, the proportions. This one is right now.

Chevrolet Camaro · Before & After
First-Gen Camaro — Navy Blue Restomod
Bare metal to navy blue. The first-generation Camaro is one of the best-looking American muscle cars ever made — the proportions are hard to argue with. This one was stripped to bare metal, rebuilt mechanically, and finished in navy with a white racing stripe.

Land Rover Defender 90 · Restoration
Defender 90 — Olive Drab Build
The Defender is one of the few vehicles that looks exactly right with a roof rack, a bull bar, and spotlights. This one is olive drab — the only color that makes sense on a Defender built this way. Checkerplate bonnet, fresh paint, all systems refreshed.

Volkswagen Bus · Before & After
VW Bus — Gloss Yellow Restomod
It came in cream and oxidized. It left gloss yellow with a two-tone roof, a lowered stance, and a roof rack. The VW Bus is one of those vehicles that's hard to make look wrong — but it's very easy to make it look right.

Ford Mustang Fastback · Restoration
Mustang Fastback — White
The 1967–68 Mustang fastback is one of the best proportioned American cars ever built — the long hood, the roofline, the stance. This one came in for restoration work and left right.
