THE GUILD OF AUTOMOTIVE RESTORERS

EXAMINATION & EVALUATION

If what you want is a project to restore, then a car with a seized motor, and other mechanical faults is not that large a problem because it will all be attended to during the restoration. But if what you want is a driver right out of the box, then there are a few things to which you should pay attention.

Like the body of a car, the mechanical parts can be camouflaged with cleaning and paint so that they may appear to be in better shape than they are. We will exam your vehicle carefully, pulling apart areas to check what’s underneath to give you an honest evaluation of the amount of work required to restore the car.

This evaluation is only a guesstimate as further dismantling of the vehicle may reveal more damage underneath parts not accessible during the initial examination. We keep you constantly informed of our progress on your car. Weekly communication via email and many pictures will be sent to you showing the condition of the car so you can make an informed decision about its restoration.
