Your Classic Gets
Our Full Attention

Most general repair shops treat classic cars like any other vehicle — squeezed between oil changes and brake jobs. We don't. Classic car service at Certified Auto Service is scheduled as a dedicated appointment, with one of our 12 lifts reserved exclusively for your vehicle.

Our roots are in transmission work — we've been under vehicles since 1980. That mechanical depth, combined with modern diagnostic tools, means we can work on your classic with both the old-school knowledge it needs and the precision modern equipment provides.

Classic Car Service FAQ

Do you work on all makes and models of classic cars?

We work on most American and import classics from the 1950s through the 1990s. We recommend calling ahead to discuss your specific vehicle so we can confirm we have the right tools and parts availability for your make and model.

Why is classic car service by appointment only?

Classic vehicles require dedicated time, specialized attention, and often custom parts sourcing. By reserving a specific lift and technician for your vehicle, we ensure your classic gets the focused care it deserves — not a rushed bay swap.

Do you offer the Certified Care Plan on classic cars?

Yes. Every classic car service includes our Certified Care Plan — a comprehensive multi-point inspection that documents your vehicle's current condition, flags items to watch, and helps you build a long-term maintenance roadmap for your classic.

Is the 5-Year / 50,000-Mile Warranty available on classic car repairs?

Yes, on qualifying repairs using NAPA parts. We'll discuss warranty applicability for your specific repair at the time of service, as some vintage components require sourced or rebuilt parts with different coverage terms.
