Some things are changing for the shop as of next week. I am going back to work for another machine shop part-fulltime depending on the workload here at my shop. I want to build on a classic car storage building and machine shop onto my current business. But I need extra funds to make that happen. So I will be machining again. No,I am not closing the shop. I still have 2 mechanics working with me. Our hours will no longer be 7-3 though. The hours will vary per job we take on. We're cutting way back on daily driver work as they usually aren't worth the hassle. But for our loyal customers we will still help you out,so that you aren't having to find a new mechanic/shop to go to. As always we're immensely grateful for those who allow us to fix their vehicles old or new. But from this point forward,classics will be our focal point. Thank you all for the business and support. Hopefully in the next couple of years I can get where I want to be with the entirety of my business. Thank you all,God bless.

This 2019 Kia stinger came in with the low oil pressure light kicking on and off. The dealership quoted the owners a substantial amount to replace both the sensor and oil pump. After some diagnosing,I determined that the oil pump was ok and that the sensor itself was going out. I used some old-school techniques(fluids) to clean the engine internally before doing an oil change. That alone helped but we went ahead and started disassembling to get to the sensor.When the guys removed the wiring harness and sensor,we noticed that the sensor was failing and allowing oil to short out the circuit. After thoroughly cleaning the harness we reinstalled it with the new sensor.With the engine flush,fresh oil and filter, new sensor and repaired harness the low oil pressure light went away. This thing has a very potent twin turbo 3.3 V6. Cool car to say the least.

As of next Monday (3-24-25). We will no longer be putting daily drivers in front of classic vehicles/projects. We will still accept dailies but they will not be a priority anymore. We've had a handful over the past couple of months that have backed up the classic car list. We are a hotrod shop above all else. We're grateful for all of our customers and appreciate the understanding and cooperation. Thank you all.

This 2003 Ford expedition came in with hard starts and lack of power. So after diagnosing it for a lack of fuel,Jeremy and Nate installed a new fuel pump in it to correct the issues. It starts and runs as it should now.
