ABOUT US

We are a boutique restoration shop specializing in restoring and completing unfinished classic and muscle cars from the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970’s.

Many projects stall due to budget constraints, time limitations, or loss of interest. Our shop brings these vehicles back to life through expert frame-off restorations and high-quality craftsmanship. To ensure exceptional quality and clear communication, we typically complete only 3–6 projects per year.

PREMIUM RESTORATIONS FOR ICONIC VEHICLES

We believe the muscle car era didn’t just produce automobiles — it produced emotions! The freedom, the power, and the gut churning roar of engines. Part of our vision is to rekindle that flame, because the muscle car animal isn’t extinct. It’s just waiting to be awakened.

Frame-off Restoration

The body is removed from the frame and place on a rotisserie or body dolly. The engine, transmission, suspension, fuel system, brakes system, steering and differential are completely disassembled from the frame. The interior, wiring, trim and glass are removed from the body.

Engine Rebuilding

We provide complete engine rebuilding services if required. Each engine can be built to customer specs. Engines can be built up to 750 horsepower. Crate engines can be an option and well as LS engine swaps.

I met Chris Russell several years ago at a Houston Corvette club car show. He was actively rebuilding classic Corvettes and Chevelle‘s at that time and you could tell from his cars in the show that there was a meticulous approach to restoration and authenticity. His stuff was spot on. Since that time I’ve used Chris and his friends (now called “classic car rescue”) to work on three of my projects. They have provided project costing, planning, project management and project completion, on time and on budget. Anyone who is serious about a muscle car restoaration will find great satisfaction in working with them. Good luck with your project.

A couple of years ago, I came across a vintage 1967 Corvette that was in need of a total resurrection. After meeting with Chris and his team of experts, we decided to embark on a journey to bring this beauty back to life. A budget was set based upon the current condition of the car. As the project continued all changes to the budget that were clearly explained and options presented. During the 14 months of the project of disassembly and restoration, I was able to visit their shop and see the progress and process. I learned so much more about my new car seeing it built from the ground up. I even got to twist a few wrenches! I found Chris and the Classic Car Rescue team to be extremely knowledgeable and easy to communicate with during the process. All in all, it was a great experience. My investment in this restoration has been a great learning experience for me, and being included in the process made it very enjoyable and worthwhile. This is a 5 Star operation in my opinion. If you are the lucky owner of a vintage auto, see it come back to life with this group of experts.
