Not on the list? It is a short list of categories, not a short list of jobs. Ring Paul on 0419 372 206 and describe it.

    Brake upgrades

    His own first line. An old car that has been made to go faster has to be made to stop, and disc conversions and boosted setups are a standing part of the work.

  • 02

    Power steering conversions

    Fitted to cars that never had it. A 67 Camaro went through and its owner’s review is about how easy it is to drive now.

  • 03

    Full car inspections prior to purchase

    Before you hand over the money, not after. Forty years of looking at old cars is exactly the thing worth borrowing for an hour.

  • 04

    Rust repairs

    Cut out and replaced. On a car this old the rust you can see is usually the smaller half of the job, and you get told that up front.

  • 05

    Suspension upgrades

    Springs, shocks and bushes, and the geometry to go with them. The four post heavy duty hoist in the workshop is there for a reason.

  • 06

    Engine conversions

    Bigger motors into older cars, including blown V8s with the drive standing through the bonnet. Two of them are sitting in his own photographs.

  • 07

    Servicing and repairs

    Modern cars, daily drivers and work utes. Four separate reviews are about a service done thoroughly on an ordinary car.

  • 08

    Full rebuilds

    Dion Ganino’s words: serviced, fixed or fully rebuilt, Paul and his team get the job every time.

  • 09

    Panel and body work

    Lesya Rowe came in for body work and left saying it was thorough, time efficient and competitively priced.

  • 10

    The small faults nobody else will chase

    Central locking that has stopped working, a tail light letting water in. Fixed alongside the main job rather than written off as not worth it.
