Summer Classic Car Restoration Project

As summer heats up, the covers come off, the sunroofs open, and the windows roll down. Midwest winters are harsh but once they are over, it is time to break out the summer vehicles. This is the best time of the year to bust out your finest classic cars, however, if your favorite ride needs some work, that may be something you are not looking forward to. Don’t worry! Wrecktify Collision and Restoration is ready to help you have more fun and less stress this summer.

CLASSIC CAR RESTORATION

Summer is the best time of the year to test drive a new car you’ve had your eye on, mostly because some classic cars won’t do too well in the snow! Whether you are looking to purchase or already have a classic car waiting for you in a garage, restoration can be a fun summertime project if you have the right knowledge. If you’re looking to tackle restoration on your own, you will need to take note of when the car was built. The production history of cars through the years differs greatly, so you will need to be familiar with car production from that time period.

Wrecktify specializes in restorations of all automobiles. Whether you want to build your dream car from scratch or bring your classic back to life, we are able to make your wish come true. We take every restoration project very seriously. We know it’s a privilege to work on your vehicle and even more so to build a vision with you. One of our body shop managers will walk you through the entire restoration process, answer any questions, and make sure they address any concerns you may have before the work begins. Skip some of the research and planning by consulting with us on your next steps.

RESTORATION PLANNING

The steps of a classic car restoration can vary greatly depending on your goals.

• How old is the car? For instance, antique cars will take an exceptionally long time to revive, or some cars might require some digging for the right parts you may need. Knowing what year the car was built will give you a baseline on how difficult, expensive, or time consuming the project will be.
• Do you want to do it yourself? Taking on a classic car restoration is a lot of work, especially if you do it on your own. Make a list of necessary repairs and updates to figure out a timeline. If you’re looking to get this done before summer ends, finding an experienced mechanic will speed things up!
• How much are you willing to spend? Figure out a budget before you dive into a restoration project. It may stop you from getting caught up with too many unnecessary upgrades.

These are all things to ask our staff to help guide you or help you with the repairs. We take pride in our 100% customer satisfaction goal, which is why we offer a “written lifetime guarantee” for each project we do. Quality workmanship is imperative when it comes to collision repairs; you should be able to count on your vehicle for years to come. Time after time our customers rave about the quality and efficiency of our work. We know your first encounter with Wrecktify may be a collision repair, but we believe in building lifelong relationships and hope to work with you on all your auto needs.

DETAILING

Make sure to work with a professional to lay out a timeline on the process of restoration and detailing so you have enough time for each step of the process. If you timed it out right, you should have all summer to ensure every step is done right and isn’t rushed.

One of the more time consuming steps is detailing. Although your ride may be running fine, it may need a bit of elbow grease. We understand your time is valuable and you may be anxious to start cruising around while the weather is still warm, so we offer numerous professional detailing services. From our basic detail package to our supreme detail service, you set the pace! Our detail plus is one of our more popular packages. It includes the basic detail (interior cleaning, wash, wax, and more) plus an interior shampoo and a clay bar treatment. The clay bar treatment enhances your clean surfaces and removes any contaminants left behind.

We also offer our Wrecktify Collision Special to any collision repair customer. You’ll receive $25 off any of our detailing packages if you schedule your detailing service within 30 days of your repair service. For any collision repairs including a paint job, you may be required to wait longer than 30 days to allow your paint to cure.
