restorations

Restoration is at the heart of what we do at The Preserve. Whether you’ve got a vintage treasure rusting in the barn or a decades-old favorite in need of revival, we specialize in preserving the soul of classic vehicles while giving them new life. Our team meticulously handles every aspect, from chassis repair and drivetrain rebuilding to custom fabrication and historically accurate restorations. We’re not just restoring cars; we’re preserving legacies. Every restoration is tailored to your vision whether that means bringing it back to award winning quality or turning it into a high-performance daily driver. At The Preserve, we believe every car deserves a second chance to tell its story. A car can be built with all new parts, accessories, and paint or they can be built “sweaty” with patina bodies, resurrected parts, and a survivor look.

Restorations are a long, dedicated process where we work very closely with clients to ensure their visions are represented in the final product. Restorations can take between six months to a year or more depending on the scope of the project. Having parts collected before the car is delivered to the shop can significantly speed up the timeline and decrease the budget. Once a car enters the shop it will be worked on from that moment forward, unless we are waiting for parts to arrive. We do not park cars outdoors and shop space is limited so we only accept cars once the are ready to begin work. Inspiration for your next build can be found on our social media pages, follow along!
