Frequently asked questions
What types of classic cars do you restore?
We specialize in the restoration of a wide range of classic and vintage vehicles, including American muscle cars, European classics, and rare collector cars. Whether it’s a partial refresh or a full frame-off restoration, our team has the expertise to bring your car back to life.
Do you offer full restorations or just specific services?
Coastline Restorations offers both. We provide full restorations for clients who want their car returned to factory-fresh condition, as well as specialized services such as paint, bodywork, engine rebuilding, upholstery, electrical rewiring, and chrome detailing.
How long does a classic car restoration take?
The timeline depends on the scope of the project and the availability of parts. A full restoration can take anywhere from 6 months to over a year, while smaller projects like paint jobs or mechanical upgrades may be completed in a few weeks. We provide a detailed estimate and timeline before beginning work.
Can you source rare or hard-to-find parts for my vehicle?
Yes. Our network of trusted suppliers and fabricators allows us to track down original parts or manufacture custom replacements when needed. This ensures authenticity and reliability in every restoration.
How much does a restoration project typically cost?
Costs vary widely depending on the condition of the vehicle and the level of restoration required. A full restoration can be a significant investment, while partial projects may be more budget-friendly. We offer transparent estimates after a thorough inspection of your car.
Do you provide custom upgrades or only factory-original restorations?
We can do both. Many clients prefer factory-correct restorations for authenticity, while others request modern upgrades such as improved suspension, disc brakes, or updated audio systems. We’ll work with you to achieve the perfect balance of originality and performance.
Will I receive updates throughout the restoration process?
Absolutely. We keep our clients informed at every stage of the project, with regular progress reports, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your restoration is moving along.
Do you offer paint and bodywork services only?
Yes. If your vehicle only needs refinishing, collision repair, or custom paintwork, we can handle standalone bodywork and refinishing services without requiring a full restoration.
Do you offer warranties on your restoration work?
Yes, all of our restoration services come with a workmanship warranty. Specific warranties may vary depending on the type of service (engine, paint, upholstery, etc.), and we’ll provide details in your service agreement.
