I tried about twenty different shops in Tempe before I trusted AutoCrafter's with our 65 Mustang which has been in the family for over 35 years and 300,000 miles. The Mustang was showing it's age in every part and panel and sadly the exterior and interior looked about as sad and worn as a car can be. I wanted a total restoration to like-new condition and I needed a shop that understood the concept of ""flawless"". I found the right shop. Jake is a straight shooter, David can lay paint better than the Ford factory, Bill can disassemble and reassemble just about any car blindfolded, Greg, Ritchie, and the rest of the guys in the shop treated me and my car right. They were in regular contact with me, involved me in as many decisions as I cared to be, and took the restoration to the Nth degree as I was hoping they would. The car literally looks and drives like new inside and out and is ready for another 300,000 miles. The prices were fair from start to finish. When the car was in 4000 parts another shop might have taken advantage of the situation and killed me with change fees but not these guys. They completed at the fee they estimated with only minor adjustments for the scope items I added myself. When we negotiated fees they were always fair. The finished fit is incredible with all the body panels, trim, rubber, doors, and hundreds of small parts lined up perfectly and better then when the car had only 20,000 miles. The paint is flawless, the interior is like new, and the car has NEVER run this good the whole time we've owned it. If you have a classic car and have been looking for a shop that knows what they're doing: this is the place. It took me ten years to find the right shop. Hats off and my sincere appreciation to Jake, David, Bill, Greg, Ritchie and the entire staff at AutoCrafters. Best shop in Tempe.
