Auto Restore Inc. is a Wisconsin company with 38 years of combined experience in auto repair and auto restoration. Quick turnover. We restore all makes of classic, antique, muscle cars and trucks.  Experienced Corvette restoration. Custom and Street Rod modifications? No problem. Our prices are the most competitive prices in the upper Midwest.  Mechanic
and upholstery work is also available on request.  Mechanic and upholstery work is not included in your estimate. You must contract with the mechanic or upholsterer for mechanical and upholstery work personally.

  All restoration work is contracted on a "Time & Materials" basis. An advance deposit is required to
start the project, and when that amount is used, further advance/retainers are required until the project is complete.

  Because there are many unknown or unforeseen repairs
on any restoration project; (for example hidden rust beneath another metal structure), it is not possible to accurately forecast the cost of restoring a vehicle. The true cost is only revealed during the rebuilding process.
It is for this reason that all of our restorations are done on a time/materials basis. Each project will hold its share of unique repair challenges. 

  Although, a somewhat accurate estimate could be made
if the vehicle was first fully disassembled; stripped of all body parts, chrome, glass, suspension, interior, paints and undercoating, etc., every piece inspected, and documented individually, for condition and originality; in addition, after the removal of all paint coatings, old collision damage, body dents and body rust would need to be evaluated. Obviously this disassembly and analysis alone is an expensive venture-especially if the customer decides not go forward with the project.

 Remember, the idea of an "inexpensive restoration"
is just one of the many myths held by people not fully understanding the true meaning and scope of the word.
Auto restoration is not for everyone. The vehicle owner
must make a substantial financial commitment
before deciding to restore.
