Focused On The Repair And Service Of Classics And Import Classics

We focus heavily on the care and feeding of our clients' classic vehicles
In addition to being modern technicians, we are also beyond familiar with all the mechanisms and the vast array of linkages that control nearly everything on classic cars and trucks.
From carburator rebuilds and replacement to engine overhauls, brakes to steering and suspension, clutches to cooling, electrical work to interior work, Drewmotive is here for all your classic automotive repair needs.
Below is small sampling of what we do for our clients' classic cars at Drewmotive. (in absolutely no particular order)
Classic car engine rebuild and overhaul
Find that it's time to
rebuild and overhaul
a worn classic engine? Compression loss, oil burning, engine knocks and noises, excessively worn bearings, low oil pressure, and coolant consumption are all common reasons for rebuilding.
This GTO suffered from multiple issues and required engine rebuilding.
This DeLorean DMC-12 "Time Machine" overheated and had head failure. Upon further assessment, it was best to overhaul the 2.8L PRV engine over simply replacing head gaskets and machining the heads.
During the rebuild process is a great time to add more
performance
to the engine, run a strong camshaft, or build it beefier. If the numbers match, you may want to build a donor motor and save the authentic block off to the side.
Chevelle engine getting some light performance work during the rebuild process.
Chevy Corvette rebuild back to stock spec.
Timing Belts, timing chains, and major services for import classics
Timing chain
Looking to do some work on your air cooled Porsche? Have
timing chain issues
, oil leaks, or general engine troubles?
Timing belt
Trying to find a reasonable price on a
major timing belt service
for your Ferrari 308, 328, or 348?
Classic cars and clutches
Clutch slipping and need to get it replaced in your Camaro, Mustang, or other classic car?
This Cobra certainly burned up its disc and needed a clutch kit with flywheel machining.
Classic car glass repairs and window work
Is the
window regulator
acting up, window falling off track, or the
window motor
just stopped working?
Electrical work for classic cars including the "prince of darkness"
Looking to get on top of some
electrical
errors and find your self at odds with Lucas? Jaguar XKE have some
starting troubles
, or your Rolls has electrical to sort? We troubleshoot and repair all wiring and electrical problems.
Carburetor work and tuning
Running rough, hesitating, lean pops, or firing back? Let's take a look at the carb(s). Could be tuning over timing. Could need carburetor rebuilding, or may need replacement.
Steering and suspension
Loose joints, rotten or worn bushings, knocking over bumps, gear box play, drifting and darting to one side when braking isn't good. Let's get the suspension set-up nice and stable.
This classic Mercury got a larger front
sway bar and links
, a rear sway bar kit, and
shocks
all the way around to help keep it stable at higher speeds.
This Oldsmobile received a much beefier
steering drag link
and
idler arm
for very controllable steering.
