People ask what we do in-house at the V8 Speed & Resto Shop, and the answer is almost everything! We do all body and paint work, mechanical, fabrication, alignment, wheel balance and tire mounting, tuning, and interior work on-site in our complex. We farm out engine machine work, but we assemble engines in-house. We have a great partner shop locally where we perform chassis dyno tuning as well. Worldwide transport available. What do you need?

he August, 2016 Goodguys Gazette magazine is full of top-name cars, builders, and shops, and the V8 Speed & Resto Shop crew is honored to be included!    The Gazette published an article titled “Pros Paint Tips” and featured some of the best shops and painters in the business… Rad Rides by Troy, Ringbrothers, Alloway’s Hot Rod Shop, Vintage Color Studio, Lanzini Body Works, Goolsby Customs, and painter Jeff Wittlich from the V8 Speed & Resto Shop is included as well.  The article reached out to the painter at each shop for advice on technology, color, the DIY aspect, and more.    If you don’t already belong to Goodguys, you should consider a membership, and not just for the magazine, as the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association hosts some of the best events for Hot Rodders and Muscle Car fans anywhere.   See more at https://www.good-guys.com/
