Would HIGHLY recommend Foreign Car Specialties. I just wanted my car back on the road after many years of inactivity. After performing their inspection, a very comprehensive list repair items was presented, ranging in importance. Throughout the entire process of getting my car running again I was updated regularly. Great place and better people.

Great people to work with. They did a very nice job on my 1960 TR3. Very knowledgeable and thorough. They document their work with written updates, photos and videos. They estimated the work would take two to three weeks and they were spot on. I considered four shops before choosing Nicki and her crew and I'm happy I chose them. True professionals at what they do.
- Rick M.
I can't say enough good things about Foreign Car Specialties. They did some major repair work on my 1963 Austin Healey 3000. They did everything I asked and more. The knowledge of the crew there is outstanding, they can answer just about any question you throw at them and they are honest and trustworthy. I highly recommend this business.
