Our Story

Twenty-plus years of getting our hands dirty with some of the finest machines on four wheels

The Folks Behind the Wrenches

We're not your typical shop crew. Everyone here's got their own path that led 'em through our doors, but we all share the same obsession - making these European machines run like they're supposed to.

What Makes Us Different

Factory-trained techs who actually care about the details

We've got the diagnostic gear that dealers use

Been restoring classics since before it was trendy

If we can't fix it right, we won't touch it

How We Got Here

2003 - Started in a Single Bay

Look, I'll be honest - it wasn't glamorous at first. Just me, a lift, and way too much coffee trying to make a name working on BMWs and Benzes that other shops wouldn't touch. Figured if you're gonna do something, might as well specialize in what gets your heart pumping, right?

2008 - Expanded & Added Classic Restoration

Word got around that we could bring old iron back to life. A customer rolled in with a '72 Alfa Spider that'd been sitting for fifteen years - total basket case. Took us nine months but when we fired that thing up... man, you can't beat that feeling. Been hooked on restos ever since.

2014 - Master Technician Certifications

Sent the whole crew through factory training programs. Cost a fortune but worth every penny. These new Euro cars aren't like the old days - they're basically computers on wheels. You either keep up with the tech or you get left behind.

2019 - Moved to Current Facility

Finally got the space we needed on Boundary Road. Eight bays, proper paint booth, metal fab area - the works. Couldn't squeeze another car into the old place if we tried. Plus the neighbors were getting tired of hearing angle grinders at odd hours.

2025 - Still Going Strong

Twenty-two years later and we're still finding new challenges that keep things interesting. Just wrapped up a full rebuild on a '65 Porsche 911 and diagnosed a phantom electrical gremlin in a 2024 AMG. That's the beauty of this work - no two days are ever the same.

The Guy Who Started It All

Founder

My old man had a '68 Jaguar E-Type sitting in the garage when I was growing up. Thing never ran right - always something wrong with it. But every weekend he'd be out there, trying to figure it out. I started handing him tools when I was maybe seven, and somewhere along the way I realized I didn't wanna do anything else with my life.

Spent my teens working at every shop that'd take me. Learned real quick that most places just wanted to turn jobs fast and move on. Nobody really cared about doing things properly anymore. That bothered me, y'know? These cars - especially the European stuff - they're engineered to be driven a certain way. They deserve better than quick fixes and cheap parts.

So I scraped together everything I had, leased a bay, and hung up my own sign. The name? That's another story for another time, but let's just say it combines my love for old-school craftsmanship with the idea that every car's got its own journey. Pretentious? Maybe a bit. But it stuck.

These days I'm less under the cars and more handling the business side, but I still get my hands dirty when something interesting rolls in. Can't help myself. This shop's been my life's work, and watching it grow from that one bay to what we've got now... that's something I'm genuinely proud of.

"We're not just fixing cars - we're keeping dreams alive, one turn of the wrench at a time."

Think We Might Be a Good Fit?

Whether you've got a classic that needs some TLC or a newer Euro ride that's acting up, we'd love to take a look. Fair pricing, honest assessments, and we'll always tell you what's actually wrong before we start throwing parts at it.

Give us a shout or swing by the shop. Coffee's usually on.
