You want muscle on your body? Get some barbells and start sweating. You want muscle on your vehicle? Get it to Gearhead…no sweat at all. We’re experts at customizing and bulking up our Resto Rods with the matching parts that will make your car purr. Just don’t trust your vehicle to just any mechanic, or you’ll be stuck with a car that’s not powerful enough to pull a greasy baloney string out of a tabby cat’s ass. And remember, if you want we’ll build you a monster from the wheels up, a vehicle that will pack all the heat you can stand. And then a little bit more. If you’re into custom engineering, listen to the fancy talkers and propeller-heads all you want. But when you want kick-ass street performance, get it from the people who live between the curbs. Get it at Gearhead.

DISASSEMBLY

Don’t worry, when we say “disassembly” it doesn’t mean we wail on your car with a sledge and a couple tire irons. This is such a surgical process, you’d be happy to have us remove your appendix (if you didn’t mind recuperating on a lift in our garage). What we do is…

  • 2)    Tag, date and inventory each part
  • 3)    Record all vin and casting part numbers
  • 4)    Disassemble all suspension parts

RESTORE

Stand back, dude. There’s so much sand blasting and acid bath soaking going on at this point, you don’t want to be nearby. This is some evil stuff. Fortunately we know what we’re doing, so we can live to do it again. We’ll…

RE-ASSEMBLE

Oh, you want it put back together too? Just kidding. Yeah, we scoop up all those shiny parts and put ‘em back where they belong. That way, it looks like a car when we give it back to you. We…

FINAL PREPARATION

Some say this stage of the process is better than sex. It ain’t. But it’s so damn close, we always bring a change of underwear. This is when we…
