Trusting a Mechanic with Your Classic Car

Classic cars – they just don’t make them like that anymore. From the muscle car to the classic cruiser, these timeless machines are the envy of any car enthusiast, especially to those who dream of owning one.

If you own a classic car and need maintenance and/or repairs, here are a few things to consider when choosing a classic car mechanic to perform the work:

• Certifications and Experience: Verify that your mechanic is ASE Certified. This certification is given by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence to mechanics through testing based on knowledge and experience. Ask the mechanic if they have extensive experience with classic vehicles, in particular, your make and model.
• References: Ask your friends and family who they recommend. If you own a classic car, seek out reviews from other classic car owners. Word of mouth based on personal experiences are a great means to choosing a trustworthy auto mechanic.
• Is the Work Guaranteed: When looking for an auto repair shop, ask if they guarantee their work. Compare different shops and ask for the specifics before you have any work performed.
• Assess the Repair Shop: Is the shop clean? Is the staff friendly and professional? Take notice of the atmosphere. The physical appearance, along with the demeanor of the employees says a lot about how the business is run.
• Make a Judgement Call: A lot can be said about trusting your gut, after all, your classic car is your baby. If the auto mechanic isn’t willing to answer your questions, or makes you feel pressured, keep looking until you feel your ‘baby’ is in good hands.
