Three Ways to Bring Your Classic Back

Whether you want a period-correct showpiece or a classic that drives like a modern car, we'll build it to match how you'll actually use it.

Concours & Factory-Correct

Full Restoration

A complete, frame-off restoration returning your car to original — or better-than-showroom — condition, down to the correct finishes and details.

  • Frame-off, every system rebuilt
  • Date- & numbers-correct details
  • Show-quality paint & panel gaps
  • Built for shows & collectors
Best of Both Worlds

Resto-Mod

Timeless classic looks with a modern heart — fuel injection, disc brakes, A/C, and updated suspension so you can actually drive and enjoy it.

  • Modern engine & drivetrain swaps
  • Cold A/C & power everything
  • Handling, brakes & safety upgrades
  • Reliable daily-or-weekend driver
Budget-Friendly

Partial & Driver Builds

Not every project needs the full treatment. We refresh, repair, or phase your build so you get a safe, great-looking driver without over-spending.

  • Paint or interior refresh
  • Mechanical & safety sort-out
  • Phased builds to spread cost
  • Barn-find revival & recommissioning
The StreetWorks Process

How Your Restoration Comes Together

A transparent, documented process — so you always know where your build stands and what it costs.

1

Consultation & Vision

We sit down with you and your car, talk goals, budget, and timeline, and assess exactly what the project needs.

2

Written Estimate & Plan

You get an itemized, written estimate and a realistic timeline. Nothing starts until you approve the scope in writing.

3

Teardown & Assessment

We disassemble, media-blast, and document the car — uncovering hidden rust or damage before it becomes a surprise.

4

Metal, Body & Paint

Rust repair, panel work, block sanding, and a show-quality finish in your factory-correct or custom color.

5

Mechanical, Wiring & Interior

Engine, drivetrain, suspension, brakes, fresh wiring, and a restored or upgraded interior — all fitted and finished.

6

Assembly, Tuning & Delivery

Final assembly, alignment, dyno tuning, and a thorough shakedown — then we hand you the keys with a warranty.

Owner Stories

What Phoenix Collectors Say About Their Builds

★★★★★

"They took my rusty '69 Camaro and turned it into a frame-off show car. The paint is flawless and every gap is perfect. They sent photos the whole way. Best restoration shop in Phoenix."

MT
Marcus T.1969 Camaro · Full Restoration · Tempe
★★★★★

"Did an LS resto-mod on my C10 — cold A/C, disc brakes, air ride, the works. It looks vintage but drives like a new truck. These guys actually know how to blend classic and modern."

JD
Jesse D.1972 C10 · Resto-Mod · Mesa
★★★★★

"Honest written estimate, no surprises, and they phased the build so I could spread out the cost. My Mustang finally looks the way I always pictured it. Worth the drive from Scottsdale."

AL
Andre L.1966 Mustang · Phased Build · Scottsdale
★★★★★

"They rebuilt the whole drivetrain and rewired my Chevelle. No more electrical gremlins, runs cool even in July, and the craftsmanship under the hood is as clean as the paint."

RG
Ray G.1970 Chevelle · Drivetrain & Wiring · Chandler
★★★★★

"Brought them a barn-find Bronco and they brought it back to life with a Coyote swap. Communication was great and the quality is unreal. I trust them with my whole collection now."

BK
Brian K.1970 Bronco · Resto-Mod · Peoria
★★★★★

"I've been to other shops that took my money and stalled. StreetWorks gave me a real timeline and stuck to it. The interior and paint on my Nova are museum quality."

Restoration FAQs

What Phoenix Owners Ask Us Most

Straight answers on cost, timelines, resto-mods, and how we protect your investment.

How much does a classic car restoration cost in Phoenix?
It depends on the car and how far you want to take it. A driver-level refresh can run in the low five figures, while a full frame-off restoration or resto-mod commonly ranges from $40,000 to well over $150,000. Every project starts with a free consultation and an itemized written estimate, so you know the scope and cost before any work begins.
How long does a full classic car restoration take?
A full frame-off restoration typically takes 12–24 months depending on the vehicle's condition, parts availability, and level of finish. Partial restorations and mechanical refreshes are much faster. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you updated with photos throughout the build.
What's the difference between a restoration and a resto-mod?
A restoration returns the car to its original factory specification. A resto-mod keeps the classic looks but upgrades the drivetrain, suspension, brakes, A/C, and electronics for modern reliability, comfort, and power. We build both — and can blend the two to match how you actually want to drive it.
Do you restore classic trucks and muscle cars, or only certain makes?
We restore American muscle cars, classic trucks, hot rods, and vintage imports — Chevy, Ford, Mopar, Pontiac, and more. From a first-gen Camaro or C10 to a Mustang, Chevelle, Bronco, or a full custom hot rod, we can handle the metal, paint, mechanicals, and interior in-house.
Can I have my classic restored in stages to spread out the cost?
Yes. Many clients phase a build — for example bodywork and paint first, then drivetrain, then interior. We'll help you prioritize by budget and get the car driving and safe as early as it makes sense, then continue refining over time.
Do you offer a warranty on your restoration work?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a written warranty, and every project is documented and quoted in writing before we start. No work proceeds without your approval, so there are no surprises. Book a free consultation or call (480) 432-1064.
